C. Solve the following problem. 8. A thermometer reading 20°F is brought into the room where the temperature is 80°F, two minutes later the temperature reading is 26°F. Determine the temperature reading as a function of time and in particular, determine the temperature reading 7 minutes after the thermometer is first brought into the room.

Doctors treated a patient at an emergency room from 2:00P.M. to 7:00P.M. The patient’s blood oxygen level L (in percent) during this time period can be modeled by L=0.270t2+3.59t+83.1,2t7 where t represents the time of day, with t=2 corresponding to 2:00P.M. Use the model to estimate the time (rounded to the nearest hour) when the patient’s blood oxygen level was 93 .
