Answer:

11 years is the required answer.

Explanation:

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{n\cdot t}[/tex]   is the formula for compound interest.

Where, r is the interest rate in decimals and n is the number of times interest is compounded anually. Putting the values, we get:

[tex]2\times 5000=5000\left(1+\frac{0.065}{1}\right)^{1\times t}\\\\\Rightarrow t=11\:years[/tex]

Best Regards!
