V (sale value) = $ 132000
P (profit) = 10% on the sale, ie 10/100 * 132000 = 1320000/100 = $ 13200
C (cost) = ?

As:

V = C + P
132000 = C + 13200
C = 132000-13200
C = 118800

Newton's law of cooling is
k (t₁ - t₂) = -ln (T₁ - T∞ / T₂ - T∞)

Use the two data points in the given to find k.

t = 0, T = 154
t = 10, T = 133

Solution:

k(0 - 10) = - ln (154 - 71/ 133 - 71)
-10k = -0.291716
k = 0.02917 or 0.0292

So now find t when T = 100
0.2917 * ( 0 - t) = -ln (154 - 71 / 100 -71)
- 0.02917t = - 1.0515
t = 36. 05 minutes
to the nearest minute t = 36
