Un-average temperatures!

Question

There was a discussion going on in TNB once about the best temperature scale, and we agreed on something: Take the average of all four main temperature scales! That is, Celsius, Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Rankine (Sorry Réaumur).

So, now the issue is, most people don't use this system. So, I need a program to convert back from this average!

Challenge

Given the average of the Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Rankine representations of a certain temperature, output the individual standard representations, in any prespecified and consistent order. It turns out that this is possible, based on my whiteboard calculations. Input will be a single floating-point value in whatever range your language can handle, and output will be four floating-point values in any reasonable format. You can restrict the input to force the output to be in the range of your language, but you must be able to support down to Absolute Zero (thus, you need to be able to handle negative numbers).

Test Cases

input -> (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, Rankine)
100 -> (-70.86071428571424, -95.54928571428565, 202.28928571428574, 364.12071428571437)
20 -> (-128.0035714285714, -198.4064285714286, 145.14642857142857, 261.2635714285714)
-10 -> (-149.43214285714282, -236.97785714285715, 123.71785714285716, 222.69214285714287)
10000 -> (7000.567857142858, 12633.022142857144, 7273.717857142858, 13092.692142857144)

These values were generated with Uriel's Python program, and I verified that they were correct.

Answer 2

Python, 63 bytes

def f(a):x=(a+183.205)*5/7;m=x*9/5;return x-273.15,m-459.67,x,m

a is the average, returns a tuple of the results as (celsius, fahrenheit, kelvin, rankine)

Math involved:

kelvin = x
celsius = x - 273.15
fahrenheit = x * 9/5 - 459.67
rankine = x * 9/5

a = (x + x - 273.15 + x * 9/5 - 459.67 + x * 9/5) / 4 = x * 7/5 - 183.205
x = (a + 183.205) * 5/7

Answer 6

dc, 37 38 bytes

[Edit 1: Added third form, per Neil's comment]

These [first two] are both the same length :( The first one produces Fahrenheit, Celsius, Kelvin, Rankine (top to bottom on the stack), and the second one produces Fahrenheit, Rankine, Celsius, Kelvin.

9k?183.205+1.4/d1.8*rd273.15-d1.8*32+f
9k?183.205+1.4/d273.15-rd1.8*d459.67-f
9k?199.205-1.4/d273.15+d1.8*d459.67-f

Example outputs (dc uses _ to signal negative numbers on input): [from first two forms; see edit below for third form.]

-128.003571429

-236.977857145
222.692142855
123.717857142
-149.432142858

How it works

9k?183.205+1.4/d1.8*rd273.15-d1.8*32+f

9k sets 9-place arithmetic.
? reads input from stdin, leaving it at top of stack (TOS).
183.205+ adds 183.205 to TOS
1.4/ divides TOS by 1.4 or 7/5, giving degrees Kelvin.
d duplicates TOS. (Ie, duplicates degrees Kelvin)
1.8*r computes Rankine from Kelvin, then reverses top two of stack.
d273.15- duplicates TOS and subtracts 273.15 to get degrees Celsius.
d1.8*32+ duplicates TOS, multiplies by 9/5, and adds 32, for Fahrenheit.
f prints contents of stack.

---

Edit 1, continued:

9k?199.205-1.4/d273.15+d1.8*d459.67-f

This form, suggested by Neil, begins by computing Celsius instead of Kelvin. This saves a rotate (an r) when computing Rankin from Kelvin.

It computes Celsius = (Average - 199.205)*5/7 via 199.205-1.4/, adds 273.15 to get Kelvin, multiplies by 1.8 to get Rankin, and subtracts 459.67 to get Fahrenheit. For example:

20
-198.406428571
261.263571429
145.146428572
-128.003571428

Answer 9

Python 3, 67 bytes

c=(5*float(input())-996.025)/7;t=[c,c*1.8+32,c+273.15,c*1.8+491.67]

This code does some algebra to get the temperature in Celcius, then I convert it to the other temperature units. The temperatures are stored in the list t.
