`a=1,052+1.08t`
The speed of a sound wave in air depends on the air temperature. The formula above shows the relationship between a, the speed of a sound wave, in feet per second, and t, the air temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit `(.^(@)F)`.
Which of the following expresses the air temperature in terms of the speed of a sound wave?

A

`t=(a-1,052)/(1.08)`

B

`t=(a+1,052)/(1.08)`

C

`t=(1,052-a)/(1.08)`

D

`t=(1.08)/(a+1,052)`
