On a linear temperature scale Y, water freezes at

-160^\circ \text{Y}

and boils at

-50^\circ \text{Y}

. On this Y scale, a temperature of 340 K would be read as: (water freezes at 273 K and boils at 373 K) (1)

-73.7^\circ \text{Y}

(2)

-233.7^\circ \text{Y}

(3)

-86.3^\circ \text{Y}

(4)

-106.3^\circ \text{Y}
