A dead body was found within a closed room of a house where the temperature was a constant 65 °F. At the time of discovery, the core temperature of the body wasdetermined to be 88 ° F. One hour later a second measurement showed that the core temperature of the body was 77 ° F. Assume that the time of death corresponds to t = 0 and that the core temperature at that time was 98.6 ° F. Determine how many hours elapsed before the body was found. Type your answer in hours in the space provided below. Round your answer to one decimal place.
