Suppose that the value, V, of a used machine can be calculated by using the formula V=P(1-n/20), where P represents the price of a new machine and n represents the machine's age in years. A company purchased a new machine for $15,000. The value of the machine is now $12,375. How old is the machine?

15000*(1-n/20) = 12375

Solve for n.
