The formula Upper F equals nine fifths Upper C plus 32
changes a temperature reading from the Celsius scale C to the Fahrenheit scale F. What is the temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit when the Celsius temperature is negative 30
degrees Upper C
?
To find the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, we can substitute the given value of -30 degrees Celsius into the formula:
F = (9/5)C + 32
F = (9/5)(-30) + 32
F = -54 + 32
F = -22
Therefore, the temperature is -22 degrees Fahrenheit.
To find the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit when the Celsius temperature is -30°C, we can use the given formula:
Upper F = (9/5)(Upper C) + 32
Substituting -30 for Upper C, we have:
Upper F = (9/5)(-30) + 32
First, let's simplify the multiplication:
Upper F = -54 + 32
Now, let's perform the addition:
Upper F = -22
Therefore, the temperature measured in degrees Fahrenheit when the Celsius temperature is -30°C is -22°F.
