Answer:

4 years

Explanation:

subtract 3000 from 24000 then 3000 from the sum of each answer till you get to 12,000

after year 1: $21,000

24,000 - 3,000 = 21,000

after year 2: $18,000

21,000 - 3,000 = 18,000

after year 3: $15,000

18,000 - 3,000 = 15,000

after year 4: $12,000

15,000 - 3,000 = 12,000
