Question

I'm not sure how to do this :(((((
The temperature outside is 2° Celsius. The formula for degrees Celsius is: C = (F - 32), where F stands for degrees Fahrenheit.

Part 1: Solve the formula for F. Show all steps.
Part 2: Determine how many degrees Fahrenheit 2 degrees Celsius is.

Answer 1

actually the conversion equation is this:
\[C = {5 \over 9}(F-32)\]

If you're book really said what you posted use that. But either way lets start off by trying to solve for F. do you know how to do that?

Answer 2

Oh yeah thanks and no :( how?

Answer 3

Lets first multiply 9 to the other side
\[9*C=5(F-32)\]
Now divide by 5
\[{9 \over 5}C=F -32\]
Can you solve the rest?

Answer 4

no :(

Answer 5

how do you think we would get 32 on the other side of the equation?

Answer 6

uhmmmm +32?

Answer 7

Good job! that's correct. So did my first few steps to get there make sense?

Answer 8

well I didn't get hoy you got the 9 over 5 :(

Answer 9

I don't know what to do now :(((

Answer 10

multiply Celsius with 9/5 and then add 32 you will have Fahrenheit

and multiply F by 5/9 and then subtract 32 you will have Celsius

Answer 11

oae pammi u got it or not?? @pam142
