Chapter 1, Problem 42(choose chapter or problem)
Outside the US, temperature readings are usually given in degrees Celsius; inside the US, they are often given in degrees Fahrenheit. The exact conversion from Celsius, C, to Fahrenheit, F, uses the formula F = 9 5 C + 32. An approximate conversion is obtained by doubling the temperature in Celsius and adding 30 to get the equivalent Fahrenheit temperature. (a) Write a formula using C and F to express the approximate conversion(b) How far off is the approximation if the Celsius temperature is 5, 0, 15, 30? (c) For what temperature (in Celsius) does the approximation agree with the actual formula?
