Question

The formula K=59(F−32)+273.15 converts temperatures from Fahrenheit F to Kelvin K.

a. Solve the formula for F.

F= ​

Answer 1

f=1/59k+27.370339

Explanation:

k=59(f−32)+273.15

Step 1: Flip the equation.

59f−1614.85=k

Step 2: Add 1614.85 to both sides.

59f−1614.85+1614.85=k+1614.85

59f=k+1614.85

Step 3: Divide both sides by 59.

59f/59=k+1614.85/59

f=1/59k+27.370339

Answer 2

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

Explanation:

K=5 /9(F−32)+273.15

Subtract 273.15 from each side

K-273.15=5/9(F−32)+273.15-273.15

K-273.15=5/9(F−32)

Multiply by 9/5 on each side

9/5 (K-273.15)= 9/5 *5/9(F−32)

9/5 (K-273.15)=(F−32)

Add 32 to each side

9/5 (K-273.15) + 32=F−32 +32

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