Suppose there is a 1.1F drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on the ground is 54.5F, what will the temperature be when the plane reaches an altitude of 8,000 feet?

Step-by-step-explanations

45.7 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Since the temperature lowers by 1.1 degrees F every 1000 feet, the temperature will drop 8 times the amount of 1.1 degrees since the plane will reach 8,000 feet above ground assuming it starts at ground level, so 8*1.1=8.8 so we then can subtract 8.8 degrees from the starting temperature of 54.5 since the temperature would be dropping instead of rising, which then would give you 54.5-8.8=45.7
