Help, confused on this problem... A metal stays solid at fehrenheit temperatures below 1673.3 degrees. Determine (in terms of inequality) those celsius temperature for which the metal stays solid. Use formula F=9/5 c+32.
1673.3 > 9/5 c+32. solve for c.
c < 5471/6
can you tell me how you did that, I am confused
which part? the solving part?
yes the solving part
\[1673.3 > 9/5 c+32.\] \[5(1673.3-32 )>9c\]
finally, \[c < \frac{5(1673.3-32)}{9}\]
so i would divide 5(1673.3−32) this first, correct?
then divide by 9?
u have to solve the bracket first, then multiply the answer by 5, finally divide it by 9
so in the bracket, i substract, correct? then multipy by 5 and then divide by 9...
Yess!
aaaah..ok..thank you saifoo for your help and understanding.
just wanted to make sure its correct, the answer is 5471.6 degrees, yes?
