They want you solve this equation 2*2800 =, where t is the time (in years). It is direct translation of the text formulation to Math. To solve this equation and find "t", first divide both sides by 2800. You will get 2 = . Take the natural logarithm of both sides. You will get ln(2) = 0.037*t, t = = 18.73. ANSWER. 18.73 years are needed. It is about 18 years and 9 months. 19 years is enough.
