8. The compound interest on a saving account is 4.2% per annum. The final amount of
the money is calculated by formula 𝑽 = 𝑷(𝟏. 𝟎𝟒𝟐)𝒏 , where V is final amount of
money, P is the initial investment, and n is the number of years. After how many years
would an initial investment of $2000 exceed $8000?
