Question

Suppose there is a 1.9°F drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on the ground is 48.8°F​, what will be the temperature when the plane reaches an altitude of 8,000 ft​?

Answer 1

Answer:

33.6 degrees F

Step-by-step explanation:

8000/1000 = 8

8(1.9) = 15.2 degree drop

48.8 - 15.2 = 33.6 degrees F
