Answer:
A) -10°F
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Boiling point of water gets affected when there is a change in the elevation.
Expression to represent the temperature i.e. boiling point w.r.to altitude [tex]A[/tex] is given by the equation:
Temperature in [tex]^\circ F[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2A}{1000}[/tex]
Given that, the altitude, [tex]A[/tex] = 5,000 feet
To find:
The number of degrees Farenhite at which the boiling point of water will change.
Solution:
Here, we are given the expression:
Temperature in [tex]^\circ F[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-2A}{1000}[/tex]
And value of altitude, [tex]A[/tex] = 5,000 feet
Let us put the value of [tex]A[/tex] in the equation and let us find the value of temperature in [tex]^\circ F[/tex].
Temperature in [tex]^\circ F[/tex] =
[tex]\frac{-2\times 5000}{1000}\\\Rightarrow -2\times 5\\\Rightarrow \bold{-10^\circ F}[/tex]
Therefore, the answer is:
A) -10°F
