Question 54957: Can someone help me on this equation?
I need to find two solutions for this equation:
Celsius temperature readings can be converted to Fahrenheit readings using the formula F= 9/5C + 32. What is the Fahrenheit temperature that corresponds to each of the following Celsius temperatures: 0 , 15, and 100?
Thanks,
Sher

F= 9/5C + 32
F=9/5*0+32=32

F=9/5*15+32
=9*3 +32=27+32=59

F=9/5*100+32
=9*20+32=180+32=212

Hi Sher,
Celsius temperature readings can be converted to Fahrenheit readings using the formula F= 9/5C + 32. What is the Fahrenheit temperature that corresponds to each of the following Celsius temperatures: 0 , 15, and 100?
For 0, substitute 0 in for C and solve for F:
F=%289%2F5%29%280%29%2B32
F=0%2B32
F=32 degrees F
For 15, substitute 15 in for C and solve for F:
F=%289%2F5%29%2815%29%2B32
F=135%2F5%2B32
F=27%2B32
F=59 degrees F
For 100, substitute 100 in for C and solve for F:
F=%289%2F5%29%28100%29%2B32
F=900%2F5%2B32
F=180%2B32
F=212 degrees F.
Happy Calculating, Sher!!!
