F=%28+9%2F5%29%28+C%2B32%29 ....if +F=131° we have
131=%28+9%2F5%29%28+C%2B32%29+
131%2F%28+9%2F5%29=C%2B32+
655%2F9=C%2B32+
72.78-32=C
C=40.78°
F=%28+9%2F5%29%28+C%2B32%29 ....if F=248° we have
248=%28+9%2F5%29%28+C%2B32%29
248%2F%28+9%2F5%29=C%2B32+
1240%2F9=C%2B32
137.78-32=C
C=105.78°
If Fahrenheit temperature ranges from 131° to 248°, inclusive, the range for the Celsius temperature will be from 40.78° to +105.78°.

She's WRONG, as usual!!

Correct formula: matrix%281%2C3%2C+F%2C+%22=%22%2C+%289%2F5%29C+%2B+32%29

With temperatures, in Fahrenheit, ranging from 131o to 248o, inclusive, we get:

Regarding this post,  I saw this error by  @MathLover1 and was going to comment/(to fix)  it,
but tutor  @MathTherapy outpaced me.


            Thanks to him,   he ridded me of it . . .



At this forum,  three persons come and bring wrong solutions practically/regularly every day.

These persons are  1)  @josgarithmetic;  2)  ewatrrr; and  3)  @MathLover1.

These persons come every day and everyday bring  1 - 2  wrong solution --- EACH.


When  @josgarithmetic was alone,  I could confront him.

When  @ewatrrr returned to the forum after  3  (or  5)  years absence,  it became two times harder for me to confront.

But when  @MathLover1 returned after several months of absence and joined them,  I feel that the critical days have come for me.


I  DEFINITELY  will not be able to confront  3  (three,  THREE)  so called  "tutors",
who,  actually,  are  "pseudo-"  and  "quasi-"  tutors and bring  4 - 6  wrong solutions each day,  cheating the visitors --- every day.


                    EVERY DAY.


It will mean for me to stop my own work at the forum,  at all.

            I am placing this my literature manifest here for  GENERAL  READING . . .

My dear tutors  (or  "tutors")  - - - -  it is not an  American way to do your job in such a  BAD  MANNER . . . as you do . . . 

    Had I worked this way at my positions at engineering companies 

        here in US - - - they would took me out next day . . .


----------------

Let me point  YOU  two major strategic errors that you do every day  (and every hour)  in your everyday work here at the forum.

        1)   Do not try to be present  EVERYTHERE  and do not try to grab every problem.

              Concentrate/focus on that posts/problems,  where you are competent.

                      // And do not think that you are competent everywhere . . . --- . . . it is  VERY  FAR  from to be true . . . 

                  For @josgarithmetic these problems are lines and parabolas (but not solving word problems)

                  For @ewatrr these problems are  STATISTICS  (but  NOT  elementary probability (!) )

                  Regarding MathLover1, I even don't know what to say - she makes her errors uniformly in each area . . . 
                  The only advise I can offer is to check yourself every time after completing the solution.


        2)  Do not try to run across the job of other tutors  (and across my work,  in particular).
