In the Fahrenheit Temperature Scale, Water Freezes at 32 F

Short Answer

In the Fahrenheit temperature scale, water freezes at 32 F and boils at 212 F. In the Celsius (or centigrade)scale, water freezes at 0 C and boils at 100 C. Assuming that the Fahrenheit temperature and the Celsius temperature are related by a linear equation, find the Fahrenheit temperature that corresponds to 71 C, to the nearest degree. __________ F
