After the Big Bang and at a time estimated to be a millionth of a second, the Universe was in a phase that filled
with quark-gluon plasma. Due to the high temperature, the strong coupling constant that describes the strength of the strong force
acting on the quarks and the gluons, was so small. As a result, quarks and gluons inside the plasma behaved as an ideal gas of
gluons and massless quarks that weakly interact with each others. Hence,  one can describe the characteristics of the plasma by the
equations of states which relate energy density and pressure to its temperature as in the MIT bag model. Having these equations of
states, one can solve Friedmann equations of the general relativity. In this work, we derive the analytic solutions for the
Friedmann differential equations governing the time evolution of the energy density and the temperature of the quark-gluon plasma
in that era of the early Universe adopting the MIT bag model.
