Suppose there is a 1.1 degree f drop in temperature every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. if the temp on the ground is 59.7f, what will be the temp at an altitude of 11,000 ft

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

We have then:

x: altitude of the plane in feet

y: final temperature

The equation modeling the problem for this case is given by:

Thus, evaluating the function for x = 11,000 ft. Height we have:

the temperature at an altitude of 11,000 ft is 47.6 F

only 10/60 isn't equivalent

hope this : )
