Problema Solution

A soda is placed in a refrigirator. The temperature of the soda after t minutes in the refrigerator is described by the function: s(t)=36+34e^-0.021t. Based on the model, what will be the temperature of the soda after 2 hours?

Answer provided by our tutors

t = 2 hr


t = 2*60 min


t = 120 min


we plug t = 120 into s(t)=36+34e^-0.021t and get:


s(120)=36+34e^(-0.021*120)


e = 2.72


s(120) = 36+34*2.72^(-0.021*120)


s(120) = 38.73
