Question

Look at this formula showing the relationship between temperature degrees Celsius and temperature in degrees Fahrenheit C = 5/9 * (P - 32) Which of these equations represents the given formula written in terms of H = 9/5 * (C + 32) H = 9/5 * (C - 32) P = 9/5 * C + 32 F = 9/5 * C = 32

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation which represents the given formula written in terms of P is  

P = 9/5 * C + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Seems the question is: Which of these equations represents the given formula written in terms of P. If so, we will make P the subject of the given formula.

C = 5/9 * (P - 32)

This can be written as

$C = \frac{5}{9} \times (P-32)$

Multiplying both sides by 9, we get

$9 \times C = 9 \times \frac{5}{9} \times (P-32)$

$9C = 5 \times (P - 32)$

Now, divide both sides by 5, we get

$\frac{9C}{5} = \frac{5 \times (P - 32)}{5}$

This gives

$\frac{9}{5} \times C = P - 32$

Now, Add 32 to both sides of the equation

$\frac{9}{5} \times C + 32 = P - 32 + 32$

This becomes

$\frac{9}{5} \times C + 32 = P$

Hence

$P = \frac{9}{5} \times C + 32$

That is,  P = 9/5 * C + 32

Hence, the equation which represents the given formula written in terms of P is  P = 9/5 * C + 32.
