Question

Advanced Function Problem.

For what values of C is the Fahrenheit temperature greater than
the equivalent Celsius temperature?

Answer 1

\[f=\frac{ 9 }{ 5 }c+32\]
\[c=(f-32)\frac{ 5 }{ 9 }\]

Answer 2

"For what values of C is the Fahrenheit temperature greater than the equivalent Celsius temperature?"
\[
f > c \\
\frac{ 9 }{ 5 }c+32 > c \\
\text{Solve for c.}
\]

Answer 3

why did you make f=c? i dont get that part.

Answer 4

I did not put f = c anywhere.

Answer 5

Instead f you put c is less than the equation for Celsius.

Answer 6

oh wait nvm

Answer 7

sorry about that got little confused. with the equations

Answer 8

not confused mixed up with the equation i should say.

Answer 9

Can you solve the above inequality for c?

Answer 10

yup im trying that.

Answer 11

\[\frac{ 5 }{ 9 }c+32>c\]
\[32>c-\frac{ 5 }{ 9 }c\]
\[32>\frac{ 4 }{ 9 }c\]
\[\frac{ 32(9) }{ 4 }>\frac{ 4c }{ 4 }\]
\[72>c\]

Answer 12

in the textbook it says c is greater than -40 for the answer what am i doing wrong?

Answer 13

got it nvm found my mistake.

Answer 14

9/5 c +32 > c
9/5 c - c > -32
4/5 c > -32
4c > -160
c > -40
