Science and medicine. Celsius temperature readings can be converted to
Fahrenheit readings using the formula . F=%289%2F5%29C+%2B32 What is the Fahrenheit
temperature that corresponds to each of the following Celsius temperatures: -10, 0, 15, 100?
Substitute -10,0,15,100 in for C and solve for F
:
For -10:
F=%289%2F5%29%28-10%29%2B32
F=9%2A%28-2%29%2B32
F=-18%2B32
F=14 degrees
:
For 0:
F=%289%2F5%29%280%29%2B32
F=0%2B32
F=32 degrees
:
For 15:
F=%289%2F5%29%2815%29%2B32
F=9%2A3%2B32
F=27%2B32
F=59 degrees
:
For 100:
F=%289%2F5%29%28100%29%2B32
F=9%2A20%2B32
F=180%2B32
F=212 degrees
Happy Calculating!!!
