Question
The pressure in pounds per square inch was measured at various altitudes of h, in kilometers (km), above Earth's surface. The results are shown in the following table.
Altitude (km) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80
Pressure (lb/in2) 14.7 11.91 9.315 7.64 6.129 4.637 3.676 3.193 2.358
Use exponential regression to find an exponential function for the pressure, P, at an altitude of h km. Round constants to the nearest thousandth.
P = 
 
 
 
Use the model to predict the atmospheric pressure (in lb/in2) at an altitude of 19 km. Round to the nearest tenth.
 ? lb/in2
