Story problem

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data



2. Relevant equations



3. The attempt at a solution

 

a can of varnish that was stored @ 40 deg F was brought in a living room where the temp is controlled at a constant 74 deg F. After 2 hours the Temp of the varnish has risen to 58 deg F. For best results the ideal Temp to use the varnish is 68 deg F. How much longer do we have to wait to use the varnish and get best results?
Please help!!!!!

 

I am in precalculus, here's what I tried....

I tried 2 hr/18 degrees x 10 degress = 1.11

 

Regarding the story problem ques:

I am new to this website. I apologize for not showing my work. I have worked on it a lot actually I just don't know if I'm right or not.

I tried.....
2 hr/ 18 degrees x 10 degrees = degrees cancel so 1.11 hour

I tried also with the newtons law of heating and cooling equation: but not sure if the K value I come up with using t= 2 hours and the temp difference 40 to 58 it the one I should use to find the time when the temp changes 10 more degrees.
