Question 220603: The relationship between the Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C) temperature scales is given by the linear function below.
F = 9/5 C+32
(a) What is the slope of the graph?
(b) What is the F-intercept?

relationship is expressed by F = 9/5*c + 32
-----
this equation is in the slope-intercept form of y = mx + b where:
m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
-----
your m is 9/5
your b is 32
-----
graph of your equation is shown below:

click on the following hyperlink to see a picture of this graph with a vertical line at 100 degrees centigrade.
x is degrees in centigrade.
y is degrees in fahrenheit
water freezes at 0 degrees centigrade and 32 degrees fahrenheit. There is a horizontal line at y = 32 degrees fahrenheit to show you that point.
water boils at 100 degrees centigrade and 212 degrees fahrenheit. There is a horizontal line at y = 212 degrees fahrenheit to show you that point.
this is given certain conditions, such as being at sea level.
