Respuesta :

For a initial amount invested P at a annual interest rate r, the total amount after n years is given by:

[tex]A=P\cdot(1+r)^n[/tex]

For P = $83927, r = 0.07 and n = 7, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=83927\cdot1.07^7 \\ A=\text{ \$134768.422} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then, the amount of interest Tiana will earn on this investment is given by:

[tex]A-P=134768.422-83927=\text{ \$50841}[/tex]
