Question

Liz is making 1 dozen ice pops for dessert. She mixes the ingredients together in her kitchen, puts them in the ice-pop mold, and leaves them in the freezer for 58 minutes. The ice pops cool at a rate of 1 C every 2 minutes and 25 seconds. Liz removes them from the freezer when they are at -2 C. What was the temperature of the ice pops when they were placed in the freezer.

Answer 1

The answer to your question is 22 degrees Celsius. To figure out the problem, all you do is take the minutes( 58 and 2 and 35 sec.) and convert to seconds(3,480 and  145) Then divide 3,480 by 145 ,which equals 24. Then take 24 and add to the  final temperature, which equals 22.
