h=k%2Ft




B. When it is 60 degrees, it takes 2 hours to melt a block of ice. Determine an equation that relates the number of hours required to melt the block of ice to the temperature.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
h=k%2Ft
h%2At=%28k%2Ft%29%2At
ht=k

k=2%2A60

k=120
