4º temperature drop per 1000 feet
Explanation:
First, determine the temperature change by subtracting the temperature at 10,000 feet from the temperature at ground level
90º - 50º = 40º
Second, determine how many 1,000 feet increments are in 10,000 feet.
Finally, divide the temperature drop by the number of 1000 foot increments.
40º / 10 = 4º per 1000 feet
