$$.a=1,052+1.08 t.$$.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 $\left({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\right)$. Which of the following expresses the air temperature in terms of the speed of a sound wave?
- A.$t=\frac{a-1,052}{1.08}$
- B.$t=\frac{a+1,052}{1.08}$
- C.$t=\frac{1,052-a}{1.08}$
- D.$t=\frac{1.08}{a+1,052}$
