A stick of butter is taken from the refrigerator and set out on the counter to soften. The
temperature of the butter will warm to room temperature over time. The temperature of
the butter can be modeled by the following function:
f(t) = 68 - 32(2.718) (-0.06)
where t is measured in minutes after the butter is taken out of the refrigerator.
Use the drop-down menus to complete the explanation of how the function models the
butter warming over time.
