To simplify the expression (−45×9/5)+32, you can follow these steps:

Step 1: Multiply -45 by 9/5.
Step 2: Add 32 to the result from Step 1.

Now, let’s calculate the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit that is equivalent to -45 degrees Celsius:

  1. Calculate (-45 × 9/5): \[ -45 × \frac{9}{5} = -45 × 1.8 = -81 \]

  2. Add 32: \[ -81 + 32 = -49 \]

Therefore, the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit that is equivalent to -45 degrees Celsius is -49 degrees Fahrenheit.

Final answers:

  • Step 1: Multiply -45 by 9/5.
  • Step 2: Add 32 to the result.

For question 2, the answer is -49 degrees Fahrenheit.
