19. A loaf of bread is taken out of hot oven with a temperature of 375'F and placed on a cooling rack with a
surrounding temperature of 72F. After 15 minutes, the temperature of the bread is 215 F. What will the
temperature of the bread be 30 minutes after taking it out of the oven? (Recall Newton's Law of Cooling Warming
is T = Ts + (To - Ts)e-kt.)
