The label on the car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between −40°C and 125°C. To convert Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature, the formula is C = (F − 32). Write and solve the inequality to determine the Fahrenheit temperature range at which this antifreeze protects the car. −40 (F − 32) 125; −40 F 257 −40

Question

The label on the car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between −40°C and 125°C. To convert Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature, the formula is C = (F − 32). Write and solve the inequality to determine the Fahrenheit temperature range at which this antifreeze protects the car. −40 > (F − 32) > 125; −40 > F > 257 −40 < (F − 32) < 125; −40 < F < 257 −40 < (F − 32); −40 < F (F − 32) < 125; F < 257

Your formula is incorrect. It's missing a fraction.

ttp · Answer

−40 < 5 over 9 (F − 32) < 125; −40 < F < 257

mathstudent55 · Answer

In your problem, you wrote
"...    the formula is C = (F − 32). Write and   ...   "

That formula is incorrect.
That's what I was trying to tell you .
There is a fraction missing in that formula.
