Suppose there is a 1.3f drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. if the temperature on the ground is 54.7f what will be the temperature when the plane reaches am altitude of 4,000ft??


The temperature will be_____F (type an integer or a decimal)

Answer:WRONGGGG!!!!! ITS 41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature of the airplane when it reaches an altitude of 4000 feets will be 49.5°F

  • Temperature on ground = initial temperature = 54.7°F

  • Rate of change in temperature per thousand feet = -1.3°F

  • Altitude or height climbed by airplane = 4000 feets

The total change in temperature can be calculated thus :

  • (Altitude × rate of change)

  • (4000 / 1000) × 1.3

  • 4 × 1.3 = 5.2°F

The temperature when the plane reaches 4000 feets will be :

  • Initial temperature - change in Temperature

  • 54.7°F - 5.2°F = 49.5°F

Therefore, the temperature will be 49.5°F
