Answer:
[211.43,216.57]
Step-by-step explanation:
1.2% of 214 is ...
0.012 × 214 = 2.568 ≈ 2.57 . . . . rounded to hundredths
Then the minimum possible value is ...
214 -2.57 = 211.43
and the maximum possible value is ...
214 +2.57 = 216.57
The range is 211.43 to 216.57.
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of minutes
y: final temperature
We write then the equation that models the problem:

For y = 20 we have:

Clearing x:
