Question

The following formula relates the quantities temperature in Celsius (C) and temperature in kelvins (K).

C = K − 273.15
a) Write two other related equations. (1 point for each equation)

Answer 1

The other two related equations are:
`C+273.15= K` and
`K-C= 273.15`

Explanation:

The formula that relates the quantities temperature in Celsius (C) and temperature in kelvins (K) is given by:
`C= K-273.15`

First we can add 273.15 to both sides of the equation. So, we will get.....

`C+273.15= K-273.15+273.15\\ \\ C+273.15= K`

Now, we can also subtract K from both sides of the original equation. So, we will get..........

`C-K= K-273.15-K\\ \\ C-K=-273.15\\ \\ K-C= 273.15`

So, the other two related equations are:
`C+273.15= K` and
`K-C= 273.15`
