Answer:

The correct answer is D: $16

Explanation:

The rule of 70 is a means of estimating the number of years it takes for an investment or your money to double.

Number of Years to Double= 70/Annual Rate of Return

Every 35 years the investment duplicates.

35 years= $2

70 years= $4

105 years= $8

140 years= $16
