to solve for t first divide both sides by 100000
2=e^.0475t take ln of both sides
ln 2 = .0475t
14.59=t
200000=100000e^.0475t divide both sides by 100000
2 = e^[.0475t] take the ln of both sides
ln 2 = ln e^[.0475t] and by a log property we can write
ln 2 = [ .0475t] * lne the ln e = 1......so we can drop this and we're left with
ln 2 = .0475t divide both sides by .0475
ln 2 / .0475 = t = about 14.59
