The label on a car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between −40°C and 140°C. To covert Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature, the formula is C equals five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two.. Write a compound inequality to determine the Fahrenheit temperature range at which the antifreeze protects the car.

Respuesta :

The compound inequality to determine the Fahrenheit temperature range at which the antifreeze protects the car is -40°C < 5/9 (F - 32) < 140°C. option D

Temperature

  • Temperature on the car's antifreeze label = −40°C and 140°C

The inequality:

-40°C < t < 140°C

To covert Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit temperature, the formula is C equals five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two.

  • C = 5/9 (F - 32)

Fahrenheit temperature range at which the antifreeze protects the car

= -40°C < 5/9 (F - 32) < 140°C

Given Options:

Negative forty is less than five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two.

  • -40 < 5/9(F - 32)

Five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two is less than one hundred forty.

  • 5/9(F - 32) < 140

Negative forty is greater than five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two is greater than one hundred forty.

  • -40 > 5/9 (F - 32) > 140

Negative forty is less than five ninths times the quantity F minus thirty two is less than one hundred forty.

  • -40 < 5/9 (F - 32) < 140

Therefore, the correct compound inequality is option D
