Newton's law of cooling states that the temperature of an object changes at a rate proportional to the difference between its temperature and that of its surroundings. Suppose that the temperature of a cup of coffee obeys Newton's law of cooling. If the coffee has a temperature of 200 °F when freshly poured, and 1 min later has cooled to 190 °F in a room at 70 °F, determine when the coffee reaches a temperature of 150 °F. Note: Enter the exact symbolic expression for the asked time. The coffee reaches the temperature 150 in minutes.

Kind solve the given problem attached below with detailed solution. Thank you

Newton's law of cooling states that the temperature of an object
changes at a rate proportional to the difference between its
temperature and that of its surroundings. Suppose that the
temperature of a cup of coffee obeys Newton's law of cooling. If the
coffee has a temperature of 200 °F when freshly poured, and 1 min
later has cooled to 190 °F in a room at 70 °F, determine when the
coffee reaches a temperature of 150 °F.
Note: Enter the exact symbolic expression for the asked time.
The coffee reaches the temperature 150 in
minutes.
