Water boils at different temperatures at different elevations. The boiling temperature of the water is 212F at sea level (0 feet) but drops about 1.72F 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 190F. Question content area bottom.
Determine a formula for the boiling point b, in degrees Fahrenheit, at elevation h, in feet.
When the boiling point is 190F, the elevation is about
