The temperature inside a room housing computer servers is important to proper function. A Google search for “server room temperature” yields the following (among other results): According to OpenXtra, server room temperatures should not dip below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and should not exceed 82 degrees Fahrenheit. The optimal temperature range is between 68 and 71 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use the conversion formula to rewrite your compound inequality from Question 18 with variable C. Then solve this inequality to determine the optimal server room temperatures in degrees Celsius. Does this match your answer to Question 17? (Note: To solve a compound inequality, use the same steps you’ve been using: Just do the same thing to all three sides.)
