The air temperature at the foot of the mountain is + 18 ° С. The height of the mountain is 4000 m.

The air temperature at the foot of the mountain is + 18 ° С. The height of the mountain is 4000 m. What will be the air temperature at the top of the mountain?

1) It is known that with an ascent for each kilometer, the air temperature drops by 6 ° C.

2) Find the decrease in air temperature when climbing to the top.

4000 m = 4 km.

4 km * 6 ° С = 24 ° С.

3) Find the air temperature at the top of the mountain. To do this, subtract the temperature drop from the air temperature at the foot.

18 ° С – 24 ° С = -6 ° С – temperature at the top of the mountain.

Answer: -6 ° C.
