Brodie · Answer 1

1) Since 1°F = 9/5 (K - 273) + 32) after the calculus we find 1°F = 255.9 K

The answer is A. increase the room temperature by 22°F, because 55° F + 22° F = 77° and 77° F = 298.1K,

2) The answer is A: Bill’s. Bill has measured the object’s volume, and the unit of volume is the liter

Diya · Answer 2

The correct answer for question 1 is B. To arrive at this answer, use the equation given to convert 55F temperature to Kelvin. The answer will be 285.9K. If you subtract 285 from 298 the answer will be 12. The correct answer for question 2 is A. This is because the unit of volume is liter.
