Solve the equation for the specified variable.
-$F = \frac { 9 } { 5 } C + 32$ for C
A) $C = \frac { F - 32 } { 9 }$
B) $C = \frac { 5 } { 9 } ( F - 32 )$
C) $C = \frac { 9 } { 5 } ( F - 32 )$
D) $C = \frac { 5 } { F - 32 }$

To solve for C, subtract 32 from both sides and then multiply by the reciprocal of $\frac{9}{5}$, which is $\frac{5}{9}$, resulting in $C = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32)$.
