Answers
GPT-4o mini
To analyze the temperature change of each pizza, we can determine the temperature drop for each one over the 15 minutes.
1. **Pizza on the Bottom:**
- Initial temperature: 85°C
- Final temperature: 68°C
- Temperature drop: 85°C - 68°C = 17°C
2. **Pizza on the Top:**
- Initial temperature: 85°C
- Final temperature: 61°C
- Temperature drop: 85°C - 61°C = 24°C
**Conclusion:**
The pizza on the top experienced a greater temperature drop (24°C) compared to the pizza on the bottom (17°C). Therefore, the statement that is correct is that the pizza on the top cooled more than the pizza on the bottom during the 15 minutes.
1. **Pizza on the Bottom:**
- Initial temperature: 85°C
- Final temperature: 68°C
- Temperature drop: 85°C - 68°C = 17°C
2. **Pizza on the Top:**
- Initial temperature: 85°C
- Final temperature: 61°C
- Temperature drop: 85°C - 61°C = 24°C
**Conclusion:**
The pizza on the top experienced a greater temperature drop (24°C) compared to the pizza on the bottom (17°C). Therefore, the statement that is correct is that the pizza on the top cooled more than the pizza on the bottom during the 15 minutes.
