If the temperature is constant, then the atmospheric pressure P (in pounds/square inch) varies with the altitude above sea level h in accordance with the law , where
is the atmospheric pressure at sea level and k is a constant.
If the atmospheric pressure is 15 at sea level and 13.5
at 5,000 ft, find the atmospheric pressure at an altitude of 15,000 ft.Please round the answer to one decimal place.
