Answer 1

Answer:

D(t)=100(0.4)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The function is

$D(t) = 100 \times( \frac{40}{100} )^{t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

At t = 0 the difference is 100 degree celsius.

After one second the temperature difference will be $100 - \frac{100\times60}{100}$ = $100(1 - \frac{60}{100} )$

After two second, the difference will be $100(1 - \frac{60}{100} )(1 - \frac{60}{100} ) = 100(1 - \frac{60}{100} )^{2}$

Hence, it can be written that,

$D(t) = 100 \times(1 - \frac{60}{100} )^{t}$ = $100 \times( \frac{40}{100} )^{t}$
