Question 1187254: The number of bacteria in a refrigerated food product is given by
N(T)=22T2-98T+54, 4
When the food is removed from the refrigerator, the temperature is given by
T(t)=7t+1.7, where
t is the time in hours.
Find the composite function
N(T(t))=

How this problem is worded / posed, it contradicts to common sense, as well as to description of involved processes.
More concretely, T(t) is the temperature OUT the refrigerator,
while the formula for N(T) works for the food INSIDE the refrigerator.
T H E R E F O R E, considering the composition N(T(t)) makes no sense.
