Suppose you make coffee and it starts off just too hot to drink, so you put it in the refrigerator temporarily to cool it off. I

f the original temperature is 190 degrees Fahrenheit and the refrigerator is 36 degrees Fahrenheit, what will the temperature of the coffee be after 3 minutes? (k = 0.12)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 36( 1 - 0.12)^x. F(x)= 36(0.88)^3. f(x)= 95.04 190-95.05 = 94.95 degree.

Because the temperature is going down, we will use (1-0.12) instead of (1+0.12). X=3 because it is what temperature after 3 min. x= time.

I don't understand the question that well, but please don't report me. I will fix it if I can.
