Correct option is A
The relationship between Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C) temperatures is given by the equation:
F =
This is a linear equation of the form y = mx + c, where:
- F (Fahrenheit) is plotted on the y-axis
- C (Celsius) is on the x-axis
- Slope (m) is 9/5
- Intercept (c) is 32°F
So, the intercept of the graph on the Fahrenheit axis (when Celsius is 0) is:
F =
- Conversion Formula: F =
- Freezing point of water: 0°C = 32°F
- Boiling point of water: 100°C = 212°F
- The Fahrenheit scale was developed by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit.
- The graph is a straight line, indicating a linear relationship.
