Questions: The ski report also reported that the temperature on the Valluga was -12°C. What is this temperature in Fahrenheit (round to the nearest degree)?

Solution Steps

1. Use the conversion factor: $1 \, \text{cm} = 0.393701 \, \text{inches}$.
2. Multiply the base depth in centimeters by the conversion factor: $$120 \, \text{cm} \times 0.393701 \, \text{inches/cm} = 47.24412 \, \text{inches}$$
3. Round the result to the nearest inch: $47 \, \text{inches}$.

1. Use the conversion formula: $F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32$.
2. Substitute the given temperature in Celsius: $$F = \frac{9}{5} \times (-12) + 32$$
3. Calculate the result: $$F = -21.6 + 32 = 10.4$$
4. Round the result to the nearest degree: $10^{\circ} \, \text{F}$.

1. Use the conversion factor: $1 \, \text{km/h} = 0.621371 \, \text{mph}$.
2. Multiply the wind speed in kilometers per hour by the conversion factor: $$10 \, \text{km/h} \times 0.621371 \, \text{mph/km/h} = 6.21371 \, \text{mph}$$
3. Round the result to the nearest mile per hour: $6 \, \text{mph}$.
