Final answer:

The record high temperature of 134°F in Death Valley, CA is equivalent to 56.67°C and 329.82 Kelvin, using the formulas for temperature conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius and Celsius to Kelvin.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the record high temperature of 134 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, we use the formula: C = (F - 32) × 5/9, where F is the Fahrenheit temperature and C is the Celsius temperature. For converting to Kelvin, the formula is K = C + 273.15.

First, we convert 134°F to Celsius:
C = (134 - 32) × 5/9
C = 102 × 5/9
C = 56.67 degrees Celsius

Then, we convert 56.67°C to Kelvin:
K = 56.67 + 273.15
K = 329.82 Kelvin

Therefore, the record high temperature of 134 degrees Fahrenheit is equivalent to 56.67 degrees Celsius and 329.82 Kelvin.
