Use the conversion formula to write the equation for the new function, F(t)

Question

Hint: Substitute the equation for C(t) into F(t) = 9/5 C(t) + 32

Answer 1

F = 9C/5 + 32

9C/5 = F-32

C = (5/9)(F-32) or

C = 5F/9 -160/9

when C= 0, F=32 (freezing temperature)

when C=100, F =212 (boiling temperature)

C =5(212)/9 - 160/9 =(1060-160)/9 =900/9 = 100 degrees Fahrenheit = 0 degrees Celsius

C=5(32)/9 -160/9 = 160/9-160/9 = 0 degrees Celsius = 32 degrees Fahrenheit
