Answer

$P=1.03\times 10^5Pa$

Work Step by Step

We can find the required pressure as follows: $P_1=P_{at}+\rho gh$ $P_1=1.013\times 10^5+(920)(9.81)(0.072)$ $P_1=1.0195\times 10^5Pa$ Now $P=P_1+\rho_{water}+gh_{water}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $P=1.0195\times 10^5+(1000)(9.81)(0.12)$ $P=1.03\times 10^5Pa$
