Given information
Here we have room temperature
The initial temperature of the coffee is
We have to solve the differential equation to find an expression for the temperature of the coffee at the time .
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
By the law of cooling we have,
The rate of change of temperature is proportional to where is room temperature.
Then differential equation becomes where is time.
Here
