At 10:30 AM, detectives discover a dead body in a room and measure its temperature at 27°C. One hour later, the body's
temperature had dropped to 24.8°C. Determine how many hours had passed since the death occured (when the body temperature
was a normal 37°C), by the time the body was discovered, assuming that the temperature in the room was held constant at 14°C.
(Use decimal notation. Give your answer to one decimal place. Round any intermediate calculations, if needed, to no less than
three decimal places.)
the number of hours:
In a murder investigation, the temperature of the corpse was 32.5°C at 1:30 p.m. and 30.6°C an hour later. Normal body temperature is 37.0°C, and the ambient temperature was 20.0°C. How long ago (in minutes before 1:30 p.m.) did the murder take place? (Round your answer to the nearest minute.)
The formula for converting Celsius temperature, C, to Fahrenheit temperature, F, is
F=95C+32.
If Fahrenheit temperature ranges from
50°
to
104°, inclusive, what is the range for Celsius temperature? Use interval notation to express this range.
