Temperature Suppose there is a 1.6°F drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on the ground is 46.2°F, what
will be the temperature when the plane reaches an altitude of 10,000 ft?
The temperature will be
PF. (Type an integer or a decimal.)

The temperature at 10,000 feet altitude will be 30.2 ° F.

We are given that:

As the airplane moves 1000 feet above the ground, the temperature drops by 1.6 ° F.

Now, the temperature on the ground is given as

Temperature on ground = 46.2 ° F

Now, the plane is at the altitude of 10,00 feet.

We need to tell the temperature at that altitude.

At 1000 feet, temperature drops by = 1.6 ° F.

At 10000 feet, the temperature will drop by = 1.6 ° F. × 10,000 / 1000

= 16 ° F.

So, the temperature will be = 46.2 ° F - 16 ° F

Temperature = 30.2 ° F

Therefore, the temperature at 10,000 feet altitude will be 30.2 ° F.
