The speed of sound c depends on the temperature of air and not on the air pressure!
The humidity of air has some negligible effect on the speed of sound. The air pressure
and the density of air (air density) are proportional to each other at the same temperature.
Temperature, density, pressure, the medium's material and the relative velocity of the medium are all major considerations. Some others are variants or specific circumstances of these. In still air, temperature is the major factor.
It is an amazing fact that the speed of sound in air is a function of temperature only. Even very large pressure changes produce only very small changes in the speed of sound.
The speed of sound in air is determined by the air itself. It is not dependent upon the sound amplitude, frequency or wavelength.
Scroll down to related links and look at "Speed of sound - temperature matters, not air pressure".
Notice: The speed of sound changes with temperatureand
a little bit with humidity − but not with air pressure (atmospheric pressure).
The words "sound pressure at sea level" are incorrect and misleading.
The temperature indication, however, is absolutely necessary. The speed of sound at 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit) is 343 metres per second. That is 1126.547 feet per second.
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.

Speed of Sound and frequency
the speed of sound depends on the material it is passing through and the tempature.colder tempatures will slow the transmission of sound whereas heat will speed it up...
Some factors that affect the speed of sound waves are density of medium, temperature, direction of wind, and humidity. Remember that a sound wave is just a pressure disturbance that travels through a medium by particle interactions. The nature of the medium will affect the sound waves velocity.
Temperature, coefficient of restitution, density are some of the factors that affect the speed of sound in a medium.
Pitch of sound in air does not affect the speed of sound.The speed of sound in air is also not affected by atmospheric pressure.Temperature does affect the speed of sound in air.Similar statements are not true for liquids or solids. It stops being true for gasses when pressure and temperature are near the point that the gas will liquify.
sound travels at a certain speed but jets go faster than sound waves

No. Speed of sound is independent of pressure.
Only the temperature is changing the speed of sound.
The speed of sound is 331 metres per second at zero degree centigrade and at sea level (air pressure and temperature affect the speed of sound).

Temperature is a fact for speed. Speed is increasing with the temperature.
