At an interest rate of 8% compounded annually, how long will it take to double the following investments?

Paladinen [302]

Let's see, if the first one has a Principal of $50, when it doubles the accumulated amount will then be $100,

recall your logarithm rules for an exponential,

$\bf \textit{Logarithm of exponentials}\\\\
log_{{ a}}\left( x^{{ b}} \right)\implies {{ b}}\cdot log_{{ a}}(x)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
$

$\bf A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &\$100\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$50\\
r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\to &0.08\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annnually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
100=50\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot t}\implies 100=50(1.08)^t
\\\\\\
\cfrac{100}{50}=1.08^t\implies 2=1.08^t\implies log(2)=log(1.08^t)
\\\\\\
$

$\bf log(2)=t\cdot log(1.08)\implies \cfrac{log(2)}{log(1.08)}=t\implies 9.0065\approx t\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
$

now, for the second amount, if the Principal is 500, the accumulated amount is 1000 when doubled,

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &\$1000\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$500\\
r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\to &0.08\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annnually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
1000=500\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot t}\implies 1000=500(1.08)^t
\\\\\\
$

$\bf \cfrac{1000}{500}=1.08^t\implies 2=1.08^t\implies log(2)=log(1.08^t)
\\\\\\
log(2)=t\cdot log(1.08)\implies \cfrac{log(2)}{log(1.08)}=t\implies 9.0065\approx t\\\\
-------------------------------$

now, for the last, Principal is 1700, amount is then 3400,

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}
\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &\$3400\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$1700\\
r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\to &0.08\\
n=
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{times it compounds per year}\\
\textit{annnually, thus once}
\end{array}\to &1\\
t=years
\end{cases}$

$\bf 3400=1700\left(1+\frac{0.08}{1}\right)^{1\cdot t}\implies 3400=1700(1.08)^t
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3400}{1700}=1.08^t\implies 2=1.08^t\implies log(2)=log(1.08^t)
\\\\\\
log(2)=t\cdot log(1.08)\implies \cfrac{log(2)}{log(1.08)}=t\implies 9.0065\approx t$
