To solve this equation for C, you would have to distribute at some point.
First step is to multiply by 9 on each side.
First step is to add 32 to both sides.
Solution: 5/9F - 32 = C
The next step from F - 32 = 9/5 C, could be to multiply both sides by 5
Based on the given equation F=95C+32, to solve for C, the correct steps are:
1. Subtract 32 from both sides: F - 32 = 95C
2. Divide both sides by 95: (F - 32) / 95 = C
Therefore, the correct answer is "The next step from F - 32 = 9/5 C could be to divide both sides by 95."
To solve the given formula F = 95C + 32 for C, follow these steps:
1. First step is to subtract 32 from both sides of the equation:
F - 32 = 95C
2. Next step is to divide both sides by 95:
(F - 32) / 95 = C
Therefore, the solution for C is (F - 32) / 95.
Checking the answers:
- Distributing is not required in this case.
- Multiplying by 9 on each side is not necessary for solving the equation.
- Adding 32 to both sides is the correct first step.
- The solution 5/9F - 32 = C is not correct, as it is missing the division by 95.
- Multiplying both sides by 5 is not needed in this solution.
Therefore, the correct answer is: Solution: (F - 32) / 95 = C
