Water boils at different temperatures at different elevations. The boiling temperature of water is 212 degrees * F sea level (0 feet ) but drops about 1.72 degrees * F for every 1,000 feet of elevation. Write a formula for the boiling point at a given elevation. Then solve the formula for the elevation when the boiling point for water is 190 degrees F.

The elevation when the boiling point of water is ° is 12790.70 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let every 1,000 feet of elevation be . Hence, we can write

Where is the boiling temperature of water at different elevations

Now, to the determine the elevation when the boiling point of water is °.

We will determine by putting °.

Hence,

Since represents every 1,000 feet of elevation, then the elevation when the boiling point of water is °

× feet

Hence,  the elevation when the boiling point of water is ° is 12790.70 feet

i you goofed up when writing this, because hnot is not a word minusf is not either. i cannot answer   because of that.
