On his first day of school, Kareem found the high temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to be [tex]$76.1^{\circ}$[/tex]. He plans to use the function [tex]$C(F)=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$[/tex] to convert this temperature from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius.

What does [tex]$C(76.1)$[/tex] represent?

A. The temperature of 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit converted to degrees Celsius.

B. The temperature of 76.1 degrees Celsius converted to degrees Fahrenheit.

C. The amount of time it takes a temperature of 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit to be converted to 32 degrees Celsius.

D. The amount of time it takes a temperature of 76.1 degrees Celsius to be converted to 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

To understand what [tex]$ C(76.1) $[/tex] represents, let's look at the situation and the function used by Kareem.

The function [tex]$ C(F) = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32) $[/tex] is a conversion formula used to convert temperatures from degrees Fahrenheit (F) to degrees Celsius (C).

Given information:
- The temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is 76.1.

The question asks us what [tex]$ C(76.1) $[/tex] represents.

Since [tex]$ C(F) $[/tex] converts Fahrenheit to Celsius, when we substitute 76.1 for [tex]$ F $[/tex] in the function, we are converting 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius. Therefore, [tex]$ C(76.1) $[/tex] represents:

- The temperature of 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit converted to degrees Celsius.

So, the correct answer is:
- The temperature of 76.1 degrees Fahrenheit converted to degrees Celsius.
