Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For interest compounded in discrete intervals, the formula is ...
A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)
We want to find t for P=1 and A=2, so we have ...
2 = (1 +r/n)^(nt)
ln(2) = nt·ln(1+r/n)
t = ln(2)/(n·ln(1+r/n))
A table of values for r=0.08 is attached.

For continuous compounding, the formula is ...
A = Pe^(rt)
t = ln(A/P)/r = ln(2)/0.08 ≈ 8.66434 . . . . years
