Last year, Maya opened an investment account with 8,800. At the end of the year, the amount in the account had decreased by 26.5%. How much is this decrease in dollars? How much money was in her account at the end of last year?

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $8,800

Percentage decrease= 26.5%

To calculate the money Maya lost, we need to use the following formula:

Decrease on dollars= 8,800*0.265

Decrease in dollars= $2,332

At the end of the years she has:

Money left= 8,800 - 2,332

Money left= $6,468

The answer is in the image 

Cost of 7 gallons=$24.50

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

The answer is in the image 

Speed=Distance/time

Here,

distance=15m

time=1sec

speed=15/1=15m/sec

Distance=Speed*time

time=15min=15*60sec=900sec

Distance travelled in 15 min=15*900=13,500m

=13500/1000 km=13.5Km

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.

tip=18% of 75.45

     =18/100 * 75.45 = $13.581

Tip = $13.581

Area of rectangle= L*b

here,

L=12.4 cm

b= 8.8 cm

A= L*b

= 12.4 * 8.8 = 109.12 cm^2

Cost before sale tax=$46.00

Cost after including tax=$48.76

Sale tax=$48.76-46.00

=$2.76

we know,

sale tax=((sales tax rate)/100) * cost before sale tax

2.76=((sales tax rate)/100) *46.00

sale tax rate=(2.76*100)/46

                   =276/46

                    =6%

There fore sales tax rate=6%
