Question

Suppose there is a 1.8 Farenheit drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on the ground is 62.4 farenheit ​, what will be the temperature when the plane reaches an altitude of 8,000 ft. ​?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

• 48° F

Explanation:

Let the altitude on the ground be 0 ft

Temperature at 8000 ft is:

• 62.4 - 1.8°*(8000 - 0)/1000 =
• 62.4 - 1.8*8 =
• 62.4 - 14.4 =
• 48° F
