The equation in terms of t that models the situation is given by

[tex]8192(1+\frac{0.01}{12} )^{12t} = 25710[/tex].

We know that the interest on a loan or deposit that is accrued on both the initial principal and the total interest from prior periods is known as compound interest and it can be calculated as

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex],

where P is the initial principal, r is the rate of interest, n is the number of times interest was charged for each time period, t is the amount of time that has passed and A is the final amount.

Here, P = 8192, r = 10% = 10/100 = 0.01, n = 12 and A = 25,710

So, we can write

[tex]8192(1+\frac{0.01}{12} )^{12t} = 25710[/tex]

Therefore the required equation is

[tex]8192(1+\frac{0.01}{12} )^{12t} = 25710[/tex]
