The formula $F = / frac{9}{5} C + 32$ can be used to convert temperatures between degrees Fahrenheit ($F$) and degrees Celsius ($C$). How many degrees are in the Celsius equivalent of $-22^/circ F$?

-30° C

Explanation:

Data provided in the problem:

The formula for conversion as:

F = (9/5) C + 32

Now,

for the values of F = - 22, C = ?

Substituting the value of F in the above formula, we get

-22 = (9/5) C + 32

or

-22 - 32 = (9/5) C

or

(9/5) C = - 54

or

C = - 54 * (5/9)

or

C = - 30 °

Hence, - 22 Fahrenheit equals to - 30°C
