Solution:

Given that the function below converts degrees Fahrenheit to

degrees Celsius:


C(f)=f-32

To find the inverse of the function such that degrees Celsius is converted back to degrees Fahrenheit, we have


\begin{gathered} Let \\ C(f)\Rightarrow y \\ f\Rightarrow x \\ thus, \\ y=x-32 \\ take\text{ y for x. This gives} \\ x=y-32 \\ Make\text{ y the subject of formula,} \\ y=x+32 \\ Thus, \\ f(C)=C+32 \end{gathered}

Hence, we have


f(C)=C+32
