Question
1.a.You are taking a road trip in a car without A/C. The temperture in the car is 105 degrees F. You buy a cold pop at a gas station. Its initial temperature is 45 degrees F. The pop's temperature reaches 60 degrees F after 25 minutes.
Given that
T−A / T0−A=e^−kt
where T=the temperature of the pop at time t.
T0== the initial temperature of the pop.
A=the temperature in the car.
k= a constant that corresponds to the warming rate.
and t= the length of time that the pop has been warming up.
How long will it take the pop to reach a temperature of 79.25 degrees F?
It will take __ minutes?
