The air temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) can be converted to degrees Celsius (°C) by taking the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, subtracting 32, and then dividing the result by 1.8 . Which equation can be used to convert °F to °C ? What is 77°F in °C ? (1 point) Responses °F=1.8°C−32; 60.6°C °F=1.8°C−32; 60.6°C °F=1.8+°C+32; 43.2°C °F=1.8+°C+32; 43.2°C °F−32=°C1.8; 81°C °F−32=°C1.8; 81°C °F=1.8°C+32; 25°C

Answer 1

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

\[ °C = \frac{(°F - 32)}{1.8} \]

From the options provided, the corresponding equation would be:

\[ °F - 32 = °C \times 1.8 \]

Now, to convert 77°F to °C using the equation, we can calculate it as follows:

1. Subtract 32 from 77: \[ 77 - 32 = 45 \]

2. Divide the result by 1.8: \[ °C = \frac{45}{1.8} = 25 \]

So, 77°F is equal to 25°C. The correct response would involve using the equation \( °F - 32 = °C \times 1.8 \) and the result of 25°C for the conversion.
