Question

The function ‘t’ which maps temperature in degree Celsius into temperature in degree Fahrenheit is defined by `t(C) = "9C"/5 + 32`

Find

(i) t(0)

(ii) t(28)

(iii) t(–10)

(iv) The value of C, when t(C) = 212.

Solution

`(9"C")/5`+32

  1. t(0) = `9/5xx` 0 + 32 = 32
  2. t(28) = `(9xx28)/5+ 32 = 252/5+ 32`= `(252+160)/5`
    = `412/5`
  3. t(-10) = `9/5xx`(-10) + 32
    = - 18 + 32 = 14
  4. t(C) = 212
    ∴ 212 = `9/5xx` C + 32
    0r `9/5xx` C = 212 - 32 =  180
    C = `(180xx5)/9`=100

Thus, the value of t, when t(C) = 212, is 100.
