A construction company has equipment that depreciates following V(t)=V0e−ktV(t) = V_0 e^{-kt}V(t)=V0​e−kt, where V0V_0V0​ is initial value and kkk is the decay constant. A bulldozer costs $180,000 new. After 5 years, its value is $95,000. If the company plans to sell the bulldozer when its value drops to $50,000, how many years after purchase will this occur?
