What percent is 72 of 120???
120*x\% = 72 \\  \\ \\  120*  \dfrac{x}{100} = 72 \\  \\  \\  \dfrac{x}{100} = \dfrac{72}{120}  \\  \\  \\ x= \dfrac{72}{120} * 100\qquad \to  \boxed{x= 60\% }

60% *120 = 72
0,6 *120   = 72 
       72 = 72

pentagon [3]
This is exponential decay which can be expressed as:

y=ab^t, y=final value, a=initial value, b=rate, t=time

In this case a=25000, r=(100-20)/100=0.8 so

y=25000(0.8^t), so in 4.5 years...

y=25000(0.8^4.5)

y≈$9158.93  (to nearest cent)
