Question 427594: the pressure of a gas varies jointly as the quantity of the gas measured in moles and thetemperature and inversly as the volume of the gas. suppose that the pressure of a particular gas is 924 kilopascals kpa when the quantity is 8 moles the temperature is 280 kelivin k and the volume is 640 cc. find the pressure of that gas when the number of moles is 11 the temperatureis 310 k and the volume is 660cc.

Start by writing the equation of variation:
"The pressure (P) of a gas varies jointly as the quantity of the gas in moles (n) and the temperature (T) and inversely as the volume of the gas (v)."
Where: P = pressure, n = number of moles, T = temperature, v = volume, and k = the constant of variation.
First find the value of k using the given initial values of the data:
Solve for k.
The formula for the pressure is:
Substitute: n = 11, T = 310, and v = 660.
Evaluate.
kpa.
