on a certain date , pat invested $ 8,000 at x percent annual interest , compounded annually . if the total value of the investment plus interest at the end of 10 years will be $ 32,000 , in how many years total will the total value of the investment plus interest increase to $ 64,000 ?
"32,000 = 8,000 ( 1 + x ) ^ 10 4 = ( 1 + x ) ^ 10 = 2 ^ 2 ( 1 + x ) ^ 10 = ( ( 1 + x ) ^ 5 ) ^ 2 = 2 ^ 2 therefore , ( 1 + x ) ^ 5 = 2 64,000 = 8,000 ( 1 + x ) ^ n ( 1 + x ) ^ n = 8 ( 1 + x ) ^ n = 2 ^ 3 ( 1 + x ) ^ n = ( ( 1 + x ) ^ 5 ) ^ 3 = ( 1 + x ) ^ 15 therefore , n = 15 . the answer is a ."
divide(log(divide(multiply(const_3, const_10), add(const_4, const_1))), log(power(divide(multiply(const_2, const_10), add(const_4, const_1)), divide(const_1, 10))))
