equations need help

Question

I need to find out the equation when f is the variable that needs to be solved.

c = 0.56(f + -32)

Answer 1

distributive property here. A*(b+c)=A*b+A*c
so... c=.56f-17.92 isolate f

c+17.92=.56f then multiply each side by 1/.56 to get 1f

.56c+32=f    f is now isolated and you now have an equation for c, given f

Answer 2

c = .56(f-32)

f+32 = c/.56

f = c/.56 + 32 = 1.8C + 32

this looks like the formula to convert the metric system Celsius temperature to

the US Fahrenheit temperature

C = (5/9)(F-32) = about .555...(F-32) = about .56(F-32)

F = 9C/5 + 32
