At ground level in Denver, Colorado, the atmospheric pressure and temperature are 83.2 kPa and 25 degrees Celsisus. Calculate the pressure on Pike's Peak at an elevation of 2690 m above the city assuming an incompressible atmosphere.

Two things:

- Homework belongs in the homework section.
- You must show some attempt at a solution. We will not just give you an answer.
