The airspeed indicator on some aircraft is affected by the changes in atmospheric pressure at different altitudes.
Question:
(A) A pilot maintains a constant reading of 200 miles per hour on the airspeed indicator as the aircraft climbs from sea level to an altitude of 10,000 feet. Write a linear equation that expresses true airspeed T (in miles per hour) in terms of altitude A (in thousands of feet).
(B) What would be the true airspeed of the aircraft at 6,500 feet?
