Answer 1

To convert temperature from degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to degrees Celsius (°C), the correct equation is:

\[ °C = \frac{(°F - 32)}{1.8} \]

So, the specific response for the equation should be:

\[ °F - 32 = °C \cdot 1.8 \]

Now, to find what 77°F is in °C, you can substitute 77 into the equation:

\[ °C = \frac{(77°F - 32)}{1.8} \]
\[ °C = \frac{(45)}{1.8} \]
\[ °C = 25°C \]

Therefore, the correct responses are:

1. The equation to convert °F to °C: \( °F - 32 = °C \cdot 1.8 \)
2. 77°F is equal to 25°C.

So, the response is:

\[ °F - 32 = °C \cdot 1.8; \quad 25°C \]
