You're wrong!!!   Actually, speed of sound increases as altitude decreases.  Thus speed of sound is slowest on a very cold day in Death Valley.  Thus, temperature doesn't matter, density altitude does.

I thought the speed of sound decreases with temperature. Which would decrease as altitude increases. Therefore making a slower speed of sound at 90,000ft. Please correct me if I am wrong.
