SOLUTION: The temperature in degrees Kelvin is 273 degrees more than the temperature in degrees Celsius. Use the formula C=59(F−32) to write a formula for the temperature in degrees Fahre

Question 1169443: The temperature in degrees Kelvin is 273 degrees more than the temperature in degrees Celsius. Use the formula C=59(F−32) to write a formula for the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit F in terms of the temperature in degrees Kelvin K.

Answer by math_helper(2461) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
K = C + 273
C = (5/9)(F-32)

so by substituting the RHS of the 2nd equation for C in the first:
K = (5/9)(F-32) + 273

K = (5F+2297)/9
Solving for F in terms of K:
F = (9K-2297)/5

Temperatures in Kelvin are just stated as such (i.e. "273 Kelvin" is the same as "100 degrees Celsius." Kelvin is an absolute temperature scale).
