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

To solve for $C$, subtract 32 from both sides of the equation to get $F - 32 = \frac{9}{5}C$, then multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{9}$ to isolate $C$, resulting in $C = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32)$.
