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_{(^{\circ}C)} + 32[/tex].



Answer :

To convert the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the formula:

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

Given that [tex]\( T_{(°C)} = 18 \)[/tex]:

1. Multiply the temperature in Celsius by [tex]\(\frac{9}{5}\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \frac{9}{5} \times 18 = 32.4 \][/tex]

2. Add 32 to the result from step 1:
[tex]\[ 32.4 + 32 = 64.4 \][/tex]

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