Dew Point and Altitude The dew point decreases as altitude increases. If the dew point on the ground is 80°F, then the dew point x miles high is D = 80 -
(a) Determine the altitudes x where the dew point D is between 50°F and 60°F, inclusive.
(b) Use an absolute value inequality to describe these altitudes.
