Solution

The given function is,

t( C )= 9C 5 +32

(i)

Substitute C=0 in the given function to calculate the value of t( 0 ).

t( 0 )= 9( 0 ) 5 +32 =32

(ii)

Substitute C=28 in the given function to calculate the value of t( 28 ).

t( 28 )= 9( 28 ) 5 +32 = 252 5 +32 = 252+160 5 = 412 5

(iii)

Substitute C=10 in the given function to calculate the value of t( 10 ).

t( -10 )= 9( 10 ) 5 +32 = 90 5 +32 =18+32 =14

(iv)

Substitute t( C )=212 in the given function to calculate the value of C.

212= 9C 5 +32 9C 5 =21232 9C=5( 180 ) C= 5( 180 ) 9

Therefore, C=100.
