Question

The function is used to convert temperature from Celsius (C) to Fahrenheit (F). The function C(K) = K − 273.15 is used to convert temperature from Kelvin (K) to Celsius. Which is the correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit?

Answer 1

The correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is
`F(K) = (9(K - 273.15))/(5) + 32`

Explanation:

Kelvin to Celsius function:

The function to convert a temperature from degrees Kelvin to degrees Celsius is given by:

`C(K) = K - 273.15`

Celsius to Fahrenheit function:

The function to convert a temperature from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit is given by:

`F(C) = (9C)/(5) + 32`

Which is the correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit?

In the equation to find F(C), we use C = C(K). So

`F(C) = (9C)/(5) + 32`

`F(C(K)) = (9(K - 273.15))/(5) + 32`

`F(K) = (9(K - 273.15))/(5) + 32`

The correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is
`F(K) = (9(K - 273.15))/(5) + 32`
