Question

2. Say you live in a planet where the temperature of the freezing and boiling points are - -100°F and 20°F respectively and you want to define a new temperature scale, 'YS (YS is the "Your Scale" temperature scale), which defines the freezing and boiling points on this scale are 0.0°YS and 100.0°YS respectively. a. Come up with an equation that would allow you to convert between °F and ᵒYS.​

Answer 1

To convert temperatures from Fahrenheit (°F) to Your Scale (°YS), you can use the following equation:

YS = (F - (-100)) / (20 - (-100)) * 100

Where YS represents the temperature in Your Scale and F represents the temperature in Fahrenheit.
