Question

A mountain is at a height of 8850 m.
Its base is at an elevation of 5450 m.
The temperature at the base is
-6 °C. If the temperature here drops
at the rate of 1 °C per 100 metres,
find the temperature at the top.​

Answer 1

Answer:

-40° C

Step-by-step explanation:

over all height of mountain from base

=8850-5450

=3400 m

temperature drops at 100 metre= 1 ° C

then total drop = 3400/100

= 34° C

temperature at the top = -6° C - 34° C

= -40° C

Answer 2

☆ Answer ☆

$\sf \red - \red4 \red0 \red°$

☆ Solution ☆

$\rightarrow$ Over all height of mountain from base

= 8850-5450

= 3400 m

$\rightarrow$ Temmperature drops at 100 metre= 1°C

Then total drop = 3400/100

= 34° C

temperature at the top = -6° C - 34° C

= -40° C
