can you prove that the Sun is larger  than the Moon? can you prove that  a year has 365 days?  these are facts. facts can not be proved  and needn′t to be proved.  the speed of sound in the air is also  a fact. the speed in air is not a constant,  this is also a fact. it depends on many  many factors, e.g. the temperature,  the pressure, the relative humidity,  the polution, and and and. the speeds  of sound in air are facts, the values  are measured, not calculated! the  dependence of measured sound speed on the  the temperature can be approximately  described with v=331+0.6T. but this  is not a mathematical or physical  theorem which you can prove or you  can derivate. it′s just a approximation   of facts.  other people describe the same  dependence with v=20.05(√(273.16+T)).  this is also only an approximation.  maybe you can find even a better  approximation in form of  v=aT^2 +bT+c(T)^(1/3) +d ln αT.

as i have said the forum is not a  good place for you to learn facts or  elementary things. go to other places  like google!

my main purpose is it to prove the  approximation(v=331+0.6Tc^° )

you can not prove an approximation!  as i have said, you can even construct   an approximation of your own for   the same data.  go to google and search “how to find  curve of best fit”.

go to google and type “sound speed in  air” and then just read, read, read ...

when i can find, why can you not find?  where are you from? is google   restricted in your country?

For theory question such as this you  will find google search gives good  answers. For maths problems  google search will not give good results.

have you read the article in   wikipedia?  A) no, you havn′t.  ⇒ then you are too lazy. since i don′t   like to lose my time for lazy people,   i won′t say anything more.  B) yes, you have, but you still don′t   understand the content there.  ⇒ then the thing is too high for your   level at the moment. if you even don′t  understand the explanation in the  article, which is very detailed and  comprehensive, then i can also not  help you further, because i can′t  explain it better than the article.  my suggestion is that you let the thing  be and wait some time till you have   learnt a little more in physics and   mathematics, for example what is   absolute temperature and what is   taylor expansion of a function etc.
