Climbing Mt. Everest is not an easy task! Not only is it a difficult hike, but the Earth’s atmosphere decreases exponentially as you climb above the Earth’s surface, and this makes it harder to breathe. The air pressure at the Earth’s surface (sea level) is approximately 14.7 pounds per square inch (or 14.7 psi). In Denver, Colorado, elevation 5280 feet, the air pressure is approximately 12.15 psi. Write an equation to represent this situation expressing air pressure as a function of altitude. What is the air pressure in Mexico City, elevation 7300 feet? At the top of Mt. Everest, elevation 29,000 feet? (Note: You will need to carry out the decimal values several places to get an accurate equation and air pressures.)

The first box is 1 then 2 / 8 for the last

Step-by-step explanation:

It's:

8

Because 4 x 2 = 8 for the denominator

and 1 x 2 = 2 for the numerator
