Question

On his first day of school, Kareem found the high temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to be 76.1°. He plans to use the function to convert this temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius. What does C(76.1) represent?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The temperature of 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit converted to degrees Celsius

Answer 2

The function for conversions from Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) x 5/9

C(76.1) = (76.1 - 32) x 5/9
= (44.1) x 5/9
= 24.5

Therefore, 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit = 24.5 degrees Celsius.
