Numerical Inequalities · Question 75 of 79

What is the safe storage range on the fridge's °F thermometer?

Question 75

MediumOriginal question

A vaccine must be stored between 2 °C and 8 °C, both included. A fridge's thermometer reads in °F, where F=95C+32F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32.

What is the safe storage range on the fridge's °F thermometer?

Options for question 75

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Multiply 2≤C≤82 \le C \le 8 by 95\frac{9}{5}: 3.6≤95C≤14.43.6 \le \frac{9}{5}C \le 14.4.

  2. Add 32: 35.6≤F≤46.435.6 \le F \le 46.4.

Worth noting

34≤F≤4034 \le F \le 40 adds 32 without first multiplying by 95\frac{9}{5}.
