The temperature on a Fahrenheit temperature scale that is twice the temperature on a Celsius temperature scale is

  1. A \(160^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  2. B \(240^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  3. C \(320^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(480^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(320^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Temperature on Fahrenheight \(\mathrm{F}=\frac{9}{5} \mathrm{C}+32\) Given \(F=2 C\) or \(C=F / 2\) \(\therefore \mathrm{F}=\frac{9}{5} \times \frac{\mathrm{F}}{2}+32 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~F}-0.9 \mathrm{~F}=32 \therefore \mathrm{~F}=320^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
