- Isabella makes $14.35 an hour at her company. Skyler, who works at the same company,
earns $16.35 an hour. His hourly wage increases by $0.25 each year.
How many years ago did Skyler start working at this company if his starting pay was the
same as what Isabella makes now? Show your work or explain your reasoning.

Answer:

It would be 8 years ago.

Step-by-step explanation:

-First, subtract $14.35 from $16.35, which gives you 2.

-Next, remember that $0.25 is a quarter, so how many quarters make $2?

-0.25x4 gives you a dollar, so 0.25x8 gives you 2 dollars.

Hope it helps!
