"The body cooling (or warming) method you're referring to is likely based on Newton's Law of Cooling. However, the information given describes a scenario where the temperature of the metal bar increases at a constant rate of 3° C per second rather than following Newton's Law of Cooling, which states that the rate of heat loss of a body is directly proportional to the difference in the temperatures between the body and its surroundings.

If the temperature of the bar increases by 3° C each second, then we can calculate the time it takes to reach a certain temperature by simple arithmetic, assuming this rate of temperature increase remains constant. This isn't really using the body cooling method but rather a linear temperature increase model.

To reach 80° C from 30° C at a rate of 3° C per second, the increase needed is:
80° C - 30° C = 50° C

At a rate of 3° C per second, the time t required to increase 50° C is:
t = \frac{50° C}{3° C/second}

Similarly, to reach 98° C from 30° C:
98° C - 30° C = 68° C

The time t required to increase 68° C at the same rate is:
t = \frac{68° C}{3° C/second}

Let's calculate both.

To reach 80° C from 30° C, it will take approximately 16.67 seconds, and to reach 98° C, it will take approximately 22.67 seconds, given the constant rate of temperature increase of 3° C per second.

\boxed{16.67\text{ seconds}} and \boxed{22.67\text{ seconds}}

Exercise 1 An ejidal association wishes to determine the distribution for the three different crops that it can plant for the next season on its available 900 hectares. Information on the total available and how many resources are required for each hectare of cultivation is shown in the following tables: Total available resource Water 15,000 m3 Fertilizer 5,000 kg Labor 125 day laborers Requirements per cultivated hectare Corn Soybeans Wheat Water 15 25 20 Fertilizer 5 8 7 Labor** 1/8 1/5 1/4 *The data in fraction means that with one day laborer it will be possible to care for 8, 5 and 4 hectares respectively. * Sales of crops 1 and 3, according to information from the Department of Agriculture, are guaranteed and exceed the capacity of the cooperative. However, soybeans must be limited to a maximum of 150 hectares. On the other hand, the profits for each hectare of crop obtained are estimated at: $7,500 for corn, $8,500 for soybeans and $8,000 for wheat. The objectives are to determine: • How many hectares of each crop must be allocated so that the profit is maximum. R= • The estimated profits for the ejidal cooperative in the next growing season. R=
