Last year, Keith opened an investment account with $8200. At the end of the year, the amount in the account had decreased by 7.5%. How much is this decrease in dollars? How much money was in his account at the end of last year?

You would multiply $8200 by .075, giving you 615. Then to find the decrease. Take the starting value (8200) by the end value (615). and you would get 7,585.

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3
