Type the correct answer in the box.

The thermometer hanging on Jessica's patio reads [tex]$18^{\circ} C$[/tex] on a cool autumn day.

The temperature on Jessica's patio in Fahrenheit is [tex]\square \, ^{\circ} F[/tex].

Use this formula to convert the temperature: [tex]T_{(\circ F )} = \frac{9}{5} \times T_{\left( ^{\circ} C \right)} + 32[/tex].



Answer :

To convert the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, we will use the given formula:

[tex]\[ T_{(\circ F)} = \frac{9}{5} \times T_{\left({ }^{\circ} C\right)} + 32 \][/tex]

Given the temperature in Celsius is [tex]\(18^{\circ} C\)[/tex]:

1. Substitute [tex]\(18\)[/tex] for [tex]\(T_{\left({ }^{\circ} C \right)}\)[/tex] in the formula:

[tex]\[ T_{(\circ F)} = \frac{9}{5} \times 18 + 32 \][/tex]

2. Now, let's perform the multiplication:

[tex]\[ \frac{9}{5} \times 18 = 32.4 \][/tex]

3. Next, add 32 to the result of the multiplication:

[tex]\[ 32.4 + 32 = 64.4 \][/tex]

Therefore, the temperature on Jessica's patio in Fahrenheit is [tex]\(64.4^{\circ} F\)[/tex].
