Question 1099733: Newton's Law of Cooling governs the temperature of an object T(t)T(t) initially at temperature T0T0 as a function of time when placed in an environment with temperature TeTe . The object's temperature is given by the equation T(t)=Te+(T0−Te)e−rtT(t)=Te+(T0−Te)e−rt where rr is the cooling rate of the system.
A dish of lasagna is backed at 375F and placed on the counter of the kitchen at room temperature (68F). After 6 minutes, the lasagna cooled to 318F. What will its temperature be 9 minutes later (15 minutes after it was removed from the oven)? Round your answer to one decimal place.
