A person invested $240 in an account growing at a rate allowing the money to double every 14 years. How long, to the nearest tenth of a year would it take for the value of the account to reach $430?

480 = 240(1 + i)^14     i = 5.076 %

 

430 = 240 (1.05076)^n        n= 11.77 years                  11.8 years
