Question

The function is used to convert temperature from Celsius (C) to Fahrenheit (F). The function C(K) = K − 273.15 is used to convert temperature from Kelvin (K) to Celsius. Which is the correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is $F(K) = \frac{9(K - 273.15)}{5} + 32$

Step-by-step explanation:

Kelvin to Celsius function:

The function to convert a temperature from degrees Kelvin to degrees Celsius is given by:

$C(K) = K - 273.15$

Celsius to Fahrenheit function:

The function to convert a temperature from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit is given by:

$F(C) = \frac{9C}{5} + 32$

Which is the correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit?

In the equation to find F(C), we use C = C(K). So

$F(C) = \frac{9C}{5} + 32$

$F(C(K)) = \frac{9(K - 273.15)}{5} + 32$

$F(K) = \frac{9(K - 273.15)}{5} + 32$

The correct function for converting temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is $F(K) = \frac{9(K - 273.15)}{5} + 32$
