Answer:

  (a)  13.85 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature difference is a decaying exponential function of time. Here, it decreases from an initial difference of 15 °C to 10 °C after 25 minutes. So, that temperature difference can be modeled as ...

  ΔT = 15(10/15)^(t/25)

We want to find the value of this at t=55. It is ...

  ΔT = 15(2/3)^(55/25) ≈ 6.15

This is the amount the temperature of the drink is below room temperature.

  drink temperature = (20 - 6.15) °C = 13.85 °C

The temperature of the drink after 55 minutes is about 13.85 °C.

Keith_Richards [23]
So x is John's age.
We can solve this problem by working backwards.
Since it's 5 times his age, we first do 5x.
And then since it's five less, we move on to 5x - 5
And then we add the John's age is increased by 11: 5x - 5 = x + 11
I hope this helped :)
