What cause the temperature of the boiling point at the top of mount Everest different from the boiling point of pure water?

Pressure is much lower at the top of Mount Everest. PV=nRT. If pressure, P, goes down, then T, temperature, goes down. More temperature must be added.


Why is there a difference in boiling points on mount Everest and room temperature?

The boiling point on Mount Everest - whether at its base or on its summit - is the boiling point of water at different pressures. Within the relevant range of atmospheric pressure, the boining point ranges from around 100 deg C to 70 deg C.Water does not boil at room temperature and so the comparison is somewhat nonsensical.
