By newton's law of cooling (with approximation)

$\frac{\Delta {T}}{\Delta {t}}=-{C}\left({T}_{{avg}}-{T}_{{s}}\right)$

$1^{\text {st }}\, \frac{-10^{\circ} {C}}{5\, {min}}=-{C}\left(70^{\circ} {C}-25^{\circ} {C}\right)$

${C}=\frac{2}{45}\, {min}^{-1}$

$2^{\text {nd }} \,\frac{{T}-65}{5 {min}}=-{C}\left(\frac{{T}+65}{2}-25\right)=-\left(\frac{2}{45}\right)\left(\frac{{T}+15}{2}\right)$

$9({T}-65)=-({T}+15)$

$10 {T}=570$

${T}=57^{\circ} {C}$
