A thermometer shows the temperature in degrees celsius (°c) and degrees fahrenheit (°f). one day, it shows 58°f and 14°c. the next day, it shows 38°f and 3°c. determine if there is a proportional relationship between the temperature in degrees celsius and the temperature in degrees fahrenheit. yes, there is a proportional relationship because degrees celsius and degrees fahrenheit are the same measurement. no, there is not a proportional relationship because degrees celsius and degrees fahrenheit are not the same measurement. yes, there is a proportional relationship because 58 over 14 equals 38 over 3. no, there is not a proportional relationship because 58 over 14 does not equal 38 over 3.

Answer:

(d) no, there is not a proportional relationship because 58 over 14 does not equal 38 over 3.

Explanation:

You want to know if there is a proportional relationship between °C and °F, given the relation (°F, °C) = (58, 14) or (38, 3).

Proportional relation

The relationship is proportional if the ratio of input and output is the same in all cases. Here, we see that ...

58/14 ≠ 38/3 . . . . . . . the relationship is not proportional
