Ed spoke to his cousin in Australia, who told him it was%C2%A0 30°C %C2%A0that day. Ed wasn’t sure if that was hot or cold, so he converted the temperature to degrees Fahrenheit. Use the formula%C2%A0 F=95C+32 %C2%A0where F%C2%A0is degrees Fahrenheit and C%C2%A0is degrees Celsius. What is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit? NOTE: Enter the number of degrees Fahrenheit in the box in order for this problem to be scored correctly. (1 point) %C2%A0°F

Answer 1

To convert 30°C to degrees Fahrenheit using the formula \( F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 \):

1. Substitute \( C = 30 \) into the formula: \[ F = \frac{9}{5}(30) + 32 \]

2. Calculate \( \frac{9}{5}(30) \): \[ \frac{9}{5} \times 30 = 54 \]

3. Now add 32: \[ F = 54 + 32 = 86 \]

Therefore, the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is \( 86°F \).
