A Correct answer
Explanation

Neo-classical growth models predict steady state growth because they assume the saving-investment equality holds in the long run. The steady state occurs when capital per worker becomes constant, and the economy grows at the rate of technological progress. The saving-investment equality is fundamental to this convergence mechanism.
