2. In the troposphere, as altitude increases, air temperature drops at a relatively uniform rate. At the top of the troposphere,

an average depth of 11 km, the average temperature is -56.5°C. At the base of the troposphere, 0 km, the average temperature is 15°C. In a linear model of this situation, which of the following statements applies? An increase of 1 km in altitude corresponds to a increase of 3.8°C in temperature. An increase of 1 km in altitude corresponds to a decrease of 3.8°C in temperature. An increase of 1 km in altitude corresponds to a increase of 6.5°C in temperature. An increase of 1 km in altitude corresponds to a decrease of 6.5°C in temperature.
