The formula [tex]F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32[/tex], where [tex]C[/tex] stands for temperature in degrees Celsius, is used to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit.

If the temperature is 30 degrees Celsius, find the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

Show your work:

1. Formula: [tex]F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32[/tex]

2. Substitution: [tex]F = \frac{9}{5}(30) + 32[/tex]

3. Answer: [tex]F = 86[/tex] degrees Fahrenheit

Answer :

Step-by-step explanation:

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit:

Temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) is equal to temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) multiplied by 9/5 plus 32:

[tex]\displaystyle\\\boxed {T^0F=\frac{9}{5}*T^0C+32^0\ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ T^0F=1,8*T^0C+32^0}[/tex]

Example:

Convert 30 degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit:

[tex]\displaystyle\\T ^0F = \frac{9}{5} *30^0C + 32^0 \\\\T^0F=9*6^0+32^0\\\\T^0F=54^0+32^0\\\\T^0F=86^0[/tex]

Answer: 30 degrees Celsius is 86 degrees Fahrenheit
