The speed of sound in air increases by 0.6 m/s for every degree Celsius increase in temperature. 
Using the given formula, we can find the temperature T:
350 m/s = 331 m/s + (0.6 m/s/°C)T
T = (350 m/s - 331 m/s) / (0.6 m/s/°C) = 19°C
Convert 19°C to Fahrenheit:
T(°F) = (T(°C) x 1.8) + 32°F = (19 x 1.8) + 32°F ≈ 66.2°F
Therefore, the answer is C) 32°F.
