Answer

$t_{F}$ = $-4^{0}$F

Work Step by Step

Apply the formula to convert Ceslius to Fahrenheit: $t_{F}$ =($t_{C}$ x$\frac{9^{0}F}{5^{0}C}$) +$32^{0}$F We know $t_{C}$ = $-20.0^{0}$C, so : $t_{F}$ =($-20.0^{0}$C x$\frac{9^{0}F}{5^{0}C}$) +$32^{0}$F $t_{F}$ = $-36^{0}$F+$32^{0}$F $t_{F}$ = $-4.0^{0}$F $t_{F}$ = $-4^{0}$F
