You have decided to try a new video game called World of Alchemist Hordes (WoAH) and created a character named Artemis. In the game dwarves and elves measure temperature differently. Dwarves measure in units of degrees Vacius (°V) and elves measure in units of degrees Arwenheit (°A). The following is used to convert between the two: ?A = ?V − 53 / 4.1 Consider the numbers 4.1 and 53 to be exact by definition. If a dwarf measures the temperature to be -12.5°A, what would she report the temperature as to her elvish friend in °V? (Please show all your work so that way I can understand going forward)

You have decided to try a new video game called World of Alchemist Hordes (WoAH) and created a character named Artemis.

In the game dwarves and elves measure temperature differently. Dwarves measure in units of degrees Vacius (°V) and elves measure in units of degrees Arwenheit (°A). The following is used to convert between the two:

?A = ?V − 53 / 4.1

Consider the numbers 4.1 and 53 to be exact by definition. If a dwarf measures the temperature to be -12.5°A, what would she report the temperature as to her elvish friend in °V? (Please show all your work so that way I can understand going forward)
