Question 1159598: The temperature at which water starts to boil (its boiling point) is linearly related to the altitude. At sea level, water boils at 212 Superscript circle Baseline Upper F212◦F. For every 1000-feet increase in altitude, the degrees Fahrenheit at which water will boil decreases by 1.9. How far above sea level do you need to be in order to have a boiling point of 202.03°F?
