The temperature T(t) of a body at time t = 0 is 160º F and it decreases continuously as per the differential equation , where K is positive constant. If T(15) = 120º F, then T(45) is equal to [2024]
80º F
90º F
85º F
95º F

Given differential equation is
Now,
On integrating, we get
... (i)
When t = 0, T = 160º F
From (i),
log |T – 80| = – Kt + log (80) ...(ii)
Now, when t = 15, T = 120º F
From (ii),
When t = 45, then from (ii),
