A homework problem was encountered this weekend that left me stumped.
I'm hoping someone with a strong Diff Eq history can help solve this
mystery. The source:

12686 = 16t - 116.3 * e^(-2t) + 116.3

I need to solve for 't' such that t = time. I'm stumped here (yes, I
did subtract 116.3 to the other side. Just showing the problem in its
form). No worries though, for I've turned in the assignment. Perhaps
someone will be nice enough to give the solution so I don't rip my
hair out over the frustration of this. If the entire problem is
required, I won't hesitate to place an addendum later. Thanks in
advance.
