Tom wants to climb a mountain. A mountain is 8849m high. Atmospheric pressure decreases exponentially the higher one ascends. he knows that this is the greatest dangers of an expedition above 8000m. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 1013 hpa. If pressure is 12% lower at 1000m above sea level, find the atmospheric pressure.

Question

how to solve this question when there is a formula of this:
P(d)=Po e^kd, where d is distance (m), Po is pressure at sea level(hpa) and P(d) is pressure at some distance above sea level(hpa). what would be Po and P(d) ?
