To change Fahrenheit temperatures to Celsius temperatures, you can use the formula C = 59

(F – 32). Which answer is the best first step to solve the equation for F?

Add 32 to both sides.

Subtract F from both sides.

Multiply both sides by 95.

Divide both sides by F.

Answer:

\(F=\dfrac{9}{5}C+32\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the Fahrenheit-Celsius conversion equation:

\(C=\dfrac{5}{9}(F-32)\)

If we want to solve for F, the first step we should take is to isolate the expression with F, which is (F - 32). We can cancel its coefficient by multiplying by its reciprocal, which is:

\(\text{reciprocal of } \dfrac{5}{9} \implies \dfrac{9}{5}\)

The equation becomes:

\(\dfrac{9}{5}C=\dfrac{ ot\!5}{ ot\!9}(F-32) \cdot \dfrac{ ot\!9}{ ot\!5}\)

\(\dfrac{9}{5}C=F-32\)

From here, all we have to do for solve for F is add 32 to both sides:

\(F=\dfrac{9}{5}C+32\)
