Find a formula for value of v, an investment ($), initially worth $16000 that grows 12% every 7 years

The amount an investment of 16000 grows over 7 years is 16000*0.12 (i.e., 12% of 16000). So, the total amount after 7 years is 16000 + 16000*0.12, which is the same as writing 16000*1.12. Now, continue the same argument: the amount we now have 16000*1.12 grows after another 7 years to (16000*1.12)*1.12. Third 7-year period, again, (16000*1.12*1.12*)*1.12, and so on. As you can already see the number of periods shows up as the number of factors 1.12 multiplied here. A shorthand for writing that is to use the exponent, like this .

Generalizing to n 7-year periods yields a formula:

(A)  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, we have to prove whether the two given triangles are congruent or similar.

Thus, From the figure, ∠3=∠4 (Vertically opposite angles)

Since, KL and NO are parallel lines and KO and LN are transversals, then

measure angle 1= measure angle 5 that is ∠1=∠5(Alternate angles).

Thus, by AA similarity rule, ΔKLM is similar to ΔONM.

Thus, Option A that is Triangle KLM is similar to triangle ONM because measure of angle 3 equals measure of angle 4 and measure of angle 1 equals measure of angle 5 is correct.
