To solve the problem, we need to convert the temperature from Kelvin to the X-scale using the information provided about the boiling and freezing points of water on the X-scale. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the given information We know: - Water boils at -60°X and at 373 K (which is 100°C). - Water freezes at -180.5°X and at 273 K (which is 0°C). ### Step 2: Set up the conversion formula ...
