Question 81149
The air pressure P at sea level is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. As the altitude h(in feet above sea level) increases, the air pressure decreases. The relationship between air pressure and altitude can be modeled by 
P=14.7e^-0.00004h 
Mount everest in Tobet and Nepal rises to a height of 29,028 feet above sea level. What is the air pressure at the peak of Mount Everest??
---------------
P=14.7e^(-0.00004*29028)

P=14.7e^(-1.161120

P=14.7*0.3131
P=4.6 pounds per square inch
