You can put this solution on YOUR website!
so basically the question is asking you to input the values(10, 0, 15, and 100) in the formula F=(9/5)c+32 where the values = c.
I'll give you an example:
Lets pick one value, say 0 for instance. F=(9/5)(0)+32
f=32. that means that when it is 0 celsius, it is 32 degrees fahrenheit.
I'll do another example--10 F=(9/5)(10)+32 ---> F=18+32 ---> F=50
Now you know how to do it why don't you try the other values (15 and 100.)
I hope this helps

F=9/5c+32
F=9/5(-10)+32
F=-90/5+32
F=-18+32
F=14
*****************
F=9/5c+32
F=9/5(0)+32
F=0+32
F=32
*****************
F=9/5c+32
F=9/5(15)+32
F=135/5+32
F=27+32
F=59
*****************
F=9/5c+32
F=9/5(100)=32
F=900/5+32
F=180+32
F=212
*****************
I hope this helps...
