11.9% decrease means that 88.1% remains.
4000 feet equals 4 times 1000 feet
pressure = 97(0.881)4

asked 02/19/19The kilopascal is a unit of measure for atmospheric pressure. Suppose the atmospheric air pressure at sea level is about
9797
kilopascals. For every 1000-m increase in altitude, the pressure decreases about
11.911.9%.
What is the approximate pressure at an altitude of
40004000
m
