In Exercises, solve for the given letter from the indicated example of this section.

For the formula in Example, solve for β. (Do not evaluate.)

EXAMPLE Solve for symbol before substituting

The volume V (in mm3) of a copper sphere changes with the temperature T (in °C) according to V = V0 + V0βT, where V0 is the volume at 0°C. For a given sphere, V0 = 6715 mm3 β = 5.10 × 10-5/°C. Evaluate T for V = 6908 mm3.

We first solve for T and then substitute the given values.

Now substituting, we have

(Copper melts at about 1100°C.)
