Equation of straight line y = mx+b 

Where x and y are the coordinates of X-axis and Y-axis respectively 

m = slope of line 

And b = y-inercept (when x= 0) 

We know temperature is a function of altitude.

So taking altitude at X-axis and temperature at Y-axis 

When altitude (x) = 0 

Temperature = 59 

So b = 59 

We know m = Y2-Y1/X2-X1 

43-51/4000-2000 = -8/2000 

m = -1/250 

By putting the values of m and b in general equation of line, 

y = (-1/250)x+59
