Answer:

the value of increase each time is 1,571.43

Explanation:

Given;

original value of the number, A = 1000

final value of the number, N = 12,000

Assuming the number increased equally each time, let the value of increase each time = x

The following linear equation will be obtained to solve for x;

7x + 1000 = 12,000

7x = 12,000 - 1,000

7x = 11,000

x = 11,000/7

x = 1,571.43

Therefore, the value of increase each time is 1,571.43
