An initial investment of $100 is now valued at $150. The annual interest rate is 5%, compounded continuously. The equation 100e^0.05t = 150 represents the situation, where t is the number of years the money has been invested. About how long has the money been invested? Use your calculator and round to the nearest whole number.
