What temperature on the Fahrenheit scale corresponds to -8.0 °C? (Notice the negative sign in this problem.)
°F = (1.8 \times °C) + 32
°F = (1.8)(-8.0) + 32 = -14 + 32
°F = 18°F
Temperatures used throughout this book are in degrees Celsius (°C) unless specified otherwise. The temperature after conversion should be expressed to the same precision as the original measurement.
