Question

The formula for degrees Celsius is: C = 5/9 (F − 32), where F stands for degrees Fahrenheit.

Part 1: Solve the equation for F and show all steps.
Part 2: Determine how many degrees Fahrenheit 20 degrees Celsius is

anonymous · Answer

First, multiply both sides by 9/5 (to make the 5/9 on the right equal 1)
9/5 C = F-32
Then add 32 two both sides, you get 
9/5C - 32 = F

Plug in 20 for C and you are set
