2 year(s) ago, Jabari invested 22,226 dollars. He has earned and will earn 5.71 percent per year in compound interest. If Mary invests 20,092 dollars in 1 year(s) from today and earns simple interest, then how much simple interest per year must Mary earn to have the same amount of money in 8 years from today as Jabari will have in 8 years from today? Answer as a rate in decimal format so that 12.34% would be entered as .1234 and 0.98% would be entered as .0098.
