document.write( "Question 1094100: The velocity of sound in dry air increase as the temperature increases. At 40 degrees sound travels at a rate of 355 meters per second. At 49 degrees sound travels at a speed of 360 meters per second. Write a linear model for the velocity v (in meters per second) of sound based on the temperature T (in degrees Celsius). Then use your model to estimate the velocity of sound at 60 degrees.\r
