How many years will it take for your balance to reach 20000 dollars?
-
8000 (e)^(.05t) = 20000
Now, just solve for t (HINT: you will need to use the natural log Ln to solve for t)
Hope that helps

(8000)e^(.05t)
20000=8000e^(.5t)
ln(2.5)=.5t
t=2ln(2.5) years
20000=8000e^(.5t)
ln(2.5)=.5t
t=2ln(2.5) years
