PLEAST ANSWER A cup of hot coffee will, over time, cool down to room temperature. The principle of physics governing the process is Newton's Law of Cooling. The temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of a cup of coffee can be modelled by the following equation:
f(t)=80+120e-0.08t

Here the time t is measured in minutes after the coffee was poured into the cup.
Explain, using the structure of the expression 80+120e-0.08t, why the coffee temperature decreases as time elapses (8 points).
What is the temperature of the coffee at the beginning of the experiment (7 points)?
Drinking coffee at 175 degrees can possibly burn your tongue. After waiting for 2 minutes, Leo became impatient and decided to drink the coffee. Will he be alright (7 points)?
The ideal temperature to drink coffee is between 120 to 140 degrees, as many of the more subtle flavors of coffee are revealed. When is the best time for Leo to drink coffee (8 points)?
