2=(1+.07/2)^2t
log of both sides..
log2=2t log(1+.035)
can you do that? Solve for t?
you want the $2700 to double, so A = 5400
5400 = 2700(1 + .035)^(2t)
2 = 1.035^(2t)
I hope you know how to use logs and know the rules of log operations
2t = log 2/log 1.035
2t = 20.148
t = 10.07
= 10.1 to the nearest tenth
how did you get (.035)
seven percent/n= .07/2
