Respuesta :

Answer:

There is a decrease of $1274 and Amount in account after decrease is $3926    

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal = $5200

the amount in the account had decreased by 24.5%

So, decrease in amount = [tex]24.5\% \times 5200[/tex]

                                      = [tex]\frac{24.5}{100} \times 5200[/tex]

                                      = [tex]1274[/tex]

So, there is a decrease of $1274

Amount in account after decrease = 5200 - 1274 = $3926    

Hence there is a decrease of $1274 and Amount in account after decrease is $3926
