dt

= kS(T ?Tm),

where

k < 0

and Tm is a constant. Suppose that two cupsA and B are filled with coffee at the same time.Initially, the temperature of the coffee is 145° F. The exposedsurface area of the coffee in cup B is twice the surfacearea of the coffee in cup A. After 30 min the temperatureof the coffee in cup A is 95° F. If

Tm = 65° F,

then what is the temperature of the coffee in cup Bafter 30 min? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
