If there is a negative symbol in front of the parentheses, it indicates that you must multiply what's inside the parentheses by -1 (if you only have a negative symbol in front of it) or multiply it by whatever negative number is provided.

The formula F=1.8C+32 can be used to convert temperature units. F is degrees Fahrenheit, and C is degrees Celsius.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

-40 °F = -40 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula F = 1.8C + 32 gives the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (F) for a given temperature in degrees Celsius (C). There is one temperature for which the number of degrees Fahrenheit is equal to the number of degrees Celsius. Complete the equation you can solve to find that temperature and then use it to find the temperature. Use the variable C to represent the number of degrees Celsius where degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius are the same. The equation is . The temperature for which the number of degrees Fahrenheit is equal to the number of degrees Celsius is °C.

F = 1.8 C + 32 (1)

There is one temperature for which the number of degrees Fahrenheit is equal to the number of degrees Celsius

Then,

F = C (2)

Substitute (2) into (1)

F = 1.8 C + 32 (1)

C = 1.8C + 32

Subtract 1.8C from each side

C – 1.8 C = 32

-0.8C = 32

Divide both sides by -0.8

C = 32 / -0.8

C = -40

Substitute C = -40 into (1)

F = 1.8C + 32 (1)

F = 1.8(-40) + 32

F = -72 + 32

F = -40

Therefore,

The temperature for which the number of degrees Fahrenheit is equal to the number of degrees Celsius is -40

That is,

-40 °F = -40 °C

Explain why you might want to write very large and very small numbers like the ones in the example problem in scientific notatio
slava [35]

Answer:

Extremely large and small numbers that have many zeros are long to write and take up a lot of room. So, by using scientific notation a number can be written shorter. For example, numbers such as 295,000,000,000 can be shortened to 2.95x10^{11}. This is easier to write and understand. This is why the scientific notation is used over standard.

What is the solution to the linear equation?<br><br> 4b + 6 = 2 – b + 4
Reil [10]

Answer:

\large\boxed{b=0}

Step-by-step explanation:

4b+6=2-b+4\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\4b+6=(2+4)-b\qquad\text{add}\ b\ \text{to both sides}\\\\5b+6=6\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\\\5b=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\b=0
