so what am i sopos to do on here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sketch or eplain pls

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do do on this question

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

In Celsius there are 100 degrees between the melting and boiling of water

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

in the Y scale there are 120 degrees so \[120°Y=100°C\] \[1°Y=5/6 °C\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[127°Y=130°Y-3°Y\] \[=100°C-3\times5/6°C\] \[=97.5°C\]

OpenStudy (marco26):

|dw:1335359989566:dw| solving for x: (0-100)/(x-100)=(10-130)/(127-130) x=97.5 degree centigrade
