HELP ME PLEASE The relationship between altitude and the boiling point of a liquid is linear. At an altitude of 8400ft, the liquid boils at 202.92°F. At an altitude of 4400ft, the liquid
boils at 207.72°F. Write an equation giving the boiling point b of the liquid, in degrees Fahrenheit, in terms of altitude a, in feet. What is the boiling point of the
liquid at 2200 ft?

(a) getting the equation:

We'll assume that the altitude is represented by the x-axis and that the boiling point is represented by the y-axis.

Therefore, we have two given points:

(8400 , 200.4) and (4200 , 206.7)

Since the relation is linear, therefore, the graph forms of straight line with the general equation:

y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

First, we will calculate the slope:

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = (206.7 - 200.4) / (4200 - 8400) = -0.0015

Therefore, the equation of the line now is:

y = -0.0015x + c

Then, we will need to calculate the y-intercept. In order to do so, we will use any give point and substitute in the previously obtained equation as follows:

y = -0.0015x + c

206.7 = -0.0015(4200) + c

c = 213

Based on the above calculations, the equation of the line is:

y = -0.0015x + 213

(b) getting the boiling point at altitude = 2100 ft:

Now, in order to calculate the boiling point at altitude 2100, we will substitute in the equation of the line as follows:

y = -0.0015(2100) + 213 = 209.85 degrees Fahrenheit
