The temperature in degrees Celsius, c, can be converted to degrees Fahrenheit, f, using the equation f-c+32. Which
statement best describes if the relation (c, f) is a function?
It is a function because -40°C is paired with -40°F.
It is a function because every Celsius temperature is associated with only one Fahrenheit temperature.
It is not a function because 0°C is not paired with 0°F.
O It is not a function because some Celsius temperatures cannot be associated with a Fahrenheit temperature.

Respuesta :

It is a function because every Celsius temperature is associated with only one Fahrenheit temperature. Therefore, option B is true.

How to convert Celsius into Fahrenheit ?

We are given that the temperature in degrees Celsius C can be converted to degrees Fahrenheit F

We know that the formula

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

If we are substituting c = -40

Then, we get

[tex]\dfrac{C}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9}\\\\\dfrac{-40}{5} = \dfrac{F - 32}{9}\\\\-8 \times 9 = F - 32\\\\F = -72 + 32\\\\F = -40[/tex]

For every Celsius temperature, we get only one value of Fahrenheit.

The function is one-one because for every value of Celsius we get a unique value of Fahrenheit.

Hence, it is a function because every Celsius temperature is associated with only one Fahrenheit temperature.

Therefore, option B is true.
