Suppose a block of metal heated to 250°F and then brought into a room that is at 90 ° F at 5 pm. At 5:30 pm, the temperature difference between the metal block and the room is 5 ° F. If u is the temperature of the block of metal, what is the appropriate equation to describe the rate of change of temperature of the block?
