Answer:The formulas for converting between degree Celsius and degree Fahrenheit are:

°F=(°C∗9/5)+32

°C=(°F−32)∗5/9

To find the temperature when both are equal, we use an old algebra trick and just set ºF = ºC and solve one of the equations.

°C=(°C∗9/5)+32

°C−(°C∗9/5)=32

−4/5∗°C=32

°C=−32∗5/4

°C=−40

°F=(°F∗9/5)+32

°F−(°F∗9/5)=32

−4/5∗°F=32

°F=−32∗5/4

°F=−40

So the temperature when both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are the same is −40degrees.

To find:

The temperatures for which the readings in Celsius and Fahrenheit scales differ by 5°

Calculation:

Case 1 : (When C - F = 5°)

 \therefore \:  \rm{ \dfrac{C}{5}  =  \dfrac{F - 32}{9} }

 =  >  \:  \rm{ \dfrac{5  + F}{5}  =  \dfrac{F - 32}{9} }

 \rm{ =  > 45 + 9F = 5F - 160}

 \rm{ =  >  9F  - 5F =  - 160 - 45}

 \rm{ =  >  4F =  - 205}

 \boxed{ \rm{ =  >  F =  -  {51.25}^{ \circ} }}

So, C = (5 + F) = (5 - 51.25) = 46.25°

Case 2:( F - C = 5°)

 \therefore \:  \rm{ \dfrac{C}{5}  =  \dfrac{F - 32}{9} }

 =  >  \:  \rm{ \dfrac{C}{5}  =  \dfrac{(5 + C) - 32}{9} }

 =  >  \:  \rm{ \dfrac{C}{5}  =  \dfrac{C- 27}{9} }

 =  >  \:  \rm{ 9C=  5C - 135 }

 =  >  \:  \rm{ 4C = - 135 }

 \boxed{ =  >  \:  \rm{ C = - {33.75}^{ \circ}  }}

F = (5 + C) = -28.75°

Hope It Helps.
