Forge welding is a process in which two pieces of steel are joined together by heating the pieces of steel and hammering them together. A welder takes a piece of steel from a forge al 1600°F and places it on an anvil where the outdoor temperature is 50°F. The temperature of the steel T (in °F) can be modeled by T = 50 + 1550 e − 0.05 t , where t is the time in minutes after the steel is removed from the forge. How long will it take for the steel to reach a temperature of 100°F so that it can be handled without heat protection? Round to the nearest minute.
