Question

The celsius and Fahrenheit scales are related by the equation C=5/9(f-32). What temperature fahrenheit would give a temperature of 5C?

Answer 1

41F

Explanation:

41-32=9

9*5/9=5

Answer 2

41 degrees F.

Explanation:

C = 5/9(f - 32)

5 = 5/9 (f - 32) Multiply both sides by 9/5:

5 * 9/5 = f - 32

9 = f - 32

f = 9 + 32

= 41.
