The formula F = 1.8C + 32 relates Celsius, C, to Fahrenheit F Solve the formula
for C.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]C =\frac{5}{9}(F - 32)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]F = 1.8C + 32[/tex]

Required

Solve for C

[tex]F = 1.8C + 32[/tex]

Subtract 32 from both sides

[tex]F-32 = 1.8C + 32-32[/tex]

[tex]F-32 = 1.8C[/tex]

Divide both sides by 1.8

[tex]\frac{1}{1.8}(F - 32) = C[/tex]

Express the decimal as fraction

[tex]\frac{1}{18/10}(F - 32) = C[/tex]

[tex]\frac{10}{18}(F - 32) = C[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) = C[/tex]

[tex]C =\frac{5}{9}(F - 32)[/tex]
