The weather forecast says it will be 95 ℉ 95℉ today. What is this temperature in ℃ ℃ ? C = 5 9 ( F − 32 ) C=\frac59\left(F-32\right)

For this problem, the weather forecast says it will be 95 degrees Fahrenheit today, and we want to know what the temperature will be in Celsius. And we're given the formula that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius. So first, let's identify our known and unknown quantities. We know the degrees in Fahrenheit today is 95 degrees. And what we don't know is the temperature in Celsius. So let's plug in our known values and solve for the unknown. Doing that we get C equals five ninths times 95 minus 32. Simplifying, we have five ninths times 95 minus 32 is 63. Multiplying by five ninths we get 35 degrees. So, Celsius is 35 degrees when Fahrenheit is 95 degrees, and that there is our final answer.

Verified step by step guidance

Identify the given temperature in Fahrenheit (F), which is 95℉ in this problem.

Recall the formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius: $C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$.

Substitute the given Fahrenheit value into the formula: $C=\frac{5}{9}(95-32)$.

Simplify the expression inside the parentheses first: calculate \$95 - 32$.

Multiply the result by $\frac{5}{9}$ to find the temperature in Celsius.
