Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle C=\frac{5\left (F-32 \right )}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Two-variable Equations

It's an expression where two variables, say C and F are related. It can be implicitly written (none of the variables is isolated) or explicitly solved for one of the variables.

The well-known formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is

[tex]\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C + 32[/tex]

We can see it's solved for F in terms of C. We need to solve for C, isolating it. First, we subtract 32 on both sides

[tex]\displaystyle F-32=\frac{9}{5}C + 32-32[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle F-32=\frac{9}{5}C[/tex]

Then, we multiply by 5 and divide by 9

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{5\left (F-32\right )}{9}=C[/tex]

This is the required formula

[tex]\displaystyle C=\frac{5\left (F-32\right )}{9}[/tex]
