Question

The equation below shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius, C, and degrees Fahrenheit, F.
F = 9/5 C + 32

Which of the following formulas correctly solves for C?


C = 5F - 32/9
C = 5F/9 - 32
C = 9/5 (F - 32)
C = 5/9 (F - 32)

Answer 1

Can you show step-by-step because I want to know for later

Answer 2

When we solve for a variable we need to isolate that variable first. Isolate C

Step one: do the opposite of addition which is subtraction. so we subtract -32 from both sides.
