document.write( "Question 1033062: On the Fahrenheit scale for measuring temperature, 32 degrees is the freezing point of water, and 212 degrees is the boiling point. Michael invented his own temperature scale, which also is linear, where water freezes at 83 degrees and boils at 128 degrees. If the temperature is 98 degrees on Michael's scale, what is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit? At what temperature are the two scales the same?
