The formula for degrees Celsius is: C = 5 over 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 25 degrees Celsius is.

Thanks

ok so first, multiply the left side by 9. Then, divide the left side by 5 to get $$\frac{ 9 }{ 5 }C=F-32$$ after the first two steps

So what would 25 degrees celcius equal? sorry Im really confused.

anonymous · Answer

well we're not done yet... next we have to add the 32 to the left side, right?

anonymous · Answer

then for part b, all you have to do is replace C in your equation with 25 and do all the math to find out what F will be. What answer did you get?

anonymous · Answer

The answer I got was F=77
