1) A covered hot cup of coffee will cool to the temperature of the room as governed by a physics principle known as Newton's Law of Cooling. The data from an experiment is shown in the table. If the room temperature is 73 degrees Fahrenheit, which statement is correct?A) The relationship could be linear with c ≈ 83oF.B) The relationship could be linear with c ≈ 63oF.C) The relationship could be exponential with c ≈ 83oF.D) The relationship could be exponential with c ≈ 63oF.

Answer:

f(t) = 80 + 120 e^(-0.08 t)

Step-by step explanation:

The exponent is negative, so this is an example of exponential decay.  As t increases, the exponent becomes more and more negative.  So e^(-0.08 t) gets closer and closer to 0.  Meaning f(t) gets closer and closer to 80.
