Answer: down 6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Edge 20
Answer:
1/8 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently cubic blocks that are 1/5 of 2 1/2 ft on a side are used to fill the cube that is 2 1/2 ft on a side. Then each edge of the block is ...
(1/5) × (5/2 ft) = 1/2 ft
The volume of the block is the cube of that:
(1/2 ft)³ = 1/8 ft³

Answer:
k ≈ -0.06729
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial temperature difference is 85 -36 = 49 degrees. After 5 minutes, the temperature difference is 71 -36 = 35 degrees. The constant k is the natural log of the ratio of these temperature differences, divided by the time unit.
k = ln(35/49)/5 ≈ -0.06729
__
The equation for the temperature T of the can in the refrigerator is ...
T = 49e^(-0.06729t) +36
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Be careful with the sign. If you're filling in k in e^(-kt), then the sign of k will be positive. Above, we have taken the form of the exponential term to be e^(kt), so k is negative.
