The ground temperature at an airport was 10 degree temperature dropped 5 degrees for every 1000m above the ground. What was the temperature outside an airport that took off from this airport and climbed to 5000m?
The ground temperature started at 10 degrees. The rate was: for every 1000 meters (m) of going above the ground, the temperature dropped 5 degrees, meaning that it got cooler. The ratio is 1000 meters to 5 degrees So that would mean: 10-5-5-5-5-5=-15 degrees
