Suppose there is a 1.2 Fahrenheit drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky if the temperature on the ground is 64.7 Fahrenheit what will the temperature be when the plane reaches an altitude of 5000 feet

9514 1404 393

  58.7 °F

Step-by-step explanation:

At 5000 feet, the airplane is 5 times 1000 feet above the ground, so the temperature will have dropped 5 times 1.2 °F.

  64.7 - 5×1.2 = 64.7 -6.0 = 58.7

At 5000 feet, the temperature is 58.7 °F.

the answer will be
