Question

convert the given fahrenheit temperature to its equivalent temperature on the celsius scale. use c = $\frac{5}{9}$(f - 32) or f = $\frac{9}{5}$c + 32, where f is the degrees in fahrenheit and c is the degrees in celsius. 96°f 96°f = $square$°c (round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute F value

Substitute $F = 96$ into $C=\frac{5}{9}(F - 32)$.
$C=\frac{5}{9}(96 - 32)$

Step2: Calculate the value in parentheses

First, calculate $96-32 = 64$.
$C=\frac{5}{9}\times64$

Step3: Calculate the final result

$C=\frac{320}{9}\approx35.6$

Answer:

$35.6$
