Question

C=0.56(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 8 degrees Celsius is.

Answer 1

that is the value in C of 8F, part 2 asks for the reverse :-)

for part 1, expand the right hand side then isolate F. Let me know if you want a hand getting started.

Answer 2

Part 2: 8º Celsius = 0.56(F-32) = 46.4º Fahrenheit

Answer 3

C=0.56(F-32) Divide both sides by 0.56 getting:
C/0.56 = F-32 Add 32 to both sides, getting:
(C/0.56) + 32 = F or
F=(C/0.56) + 32
That is part 1. Use that formula to do convert the 8 degree Celsius.

Answer 4

Part 2: F=(8/0.56)+32
F=46.3 degrees

Answer 5

Sorry but my computer got hung up when "owl be back" came on lol
