A Meteorologist Measures the Atmospheric Pressure P (In Kilograms Per (h,lnP)( h , \ln P )

Question 7

Multiple Choice

A meteorologist measures the atmospheric pressure P (in kilograms per square meter) at altitude h (in kilometers) . The data are shown below. Use the regression capabilities of the Graphing utility to find a linear model for the revised data points obtained by plotting the points (h,lnP) ( h , \ln P ) h05101520p28,085151696,4583,3711,405\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline h & 0 & 5 & 10 & 15 & 20 \\\hline p & 28,085 & 15169 & 6,458 & 3,371 & 1,405 \\\hline\end{array}


A) lnP=0.1499h+10.3018\ln P = - 0.1499 h + 10.3018
B) lnP=0.1944h14.3601\ln P = - 0.1944 h - 14.3601
C) lnP=0.1944h+10.3601\ln P = 0.1944 h + 10.3601
D) lnP=0.1499h14.3016\ln P = - 0.1499 h - 14.3016
E) lnP=0.1499h10.3018\ln P = - 0.1499 h - 10.3018
