Recap on Tuesday’s lesson

Converting Temperatures

• Today you will be able to convert temperatures from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit and vise versa.

• Definitions for this lesson are:• Degrees: the measure of temperature, how hot or cold something

is• Celsius: using the metric system • Fahrenheit: using customary system

The thermometer to the left shows common temperatures in both degrees Fahrenheit

and Celsius.

We use the formula when converting from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

When using the formula, simply plug in the given degree in Celsius and solve

using order of operations.

Lets solve , for C

𝐶=59 (𝐹−32)

Now that we have our new formula, we can use it to convert

temperatures from degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius.

𝑪=𝟓𝟗 (𝑭−𝟑𝟐)

ClassworkI want you to get into pairs, (yes, that means ONLY 2 per

group).With your partner, I want you to use the following

information to create two different bar graphs, one in degrees Fahrenheit and one in degrees Celsius. I want you to convert each temperature so that you have each cities

temperature in both measures.Put the city name alphabetically along the x-axis
