Question 446452: The altitude of an aircraft, h, in miles, is given by h=-(100/9)logp/b, where P = the outside air pressure, and B = the atmospheric pressure at sea level. Let B = 31 inches of mercury (in. Hg). What is the outside air pressure at a height of 3.6 miles? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
