F=9/5 C + 32
For c = -10:
F= 9/5(-10)+ 32
==> F = 9(-2)+ 32 ==> -18 +32 = 14
therfore for C= -10 , F= 14;

For c = 0:
F= 9/5(0)+ 32
==> F = 0 + 32 ==> 32
therfore for C= 0 , F= 32;
For c = 15:
F= 9/5(15)+ 32
==> F = 9(3)+ 32 ==> 27 +32 = 59
therfore for C= 15 , F= 59;
For c = 100:
F= 9/5(100)+ 32
==> F = 9(20)+ 32 ==> 180 +32 = 212
therfore for C= 100 , F= 212;
