Answer:

7.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal=  $1,000

Final amount= $2,400

TIme= 12 years

The expression for the compound interest is given as

A= P(1+r)^t

Make r subject of fomula

r = ln(A/P) / t

r= ln(2400/1000)/12

r= ln(2.4)/12

r= 0.875/12

r= 0.0729

Hence the rate is 7.29%
