Volume varies inversely as Pressure
\n" ); document.write( "V = k/P
\n" ); document.write( "(k = constant of variation)
\n" ); document.write( "Using first set of data to work out k
\n" ); document.write( "20 = k/6
\n" ); document.write( "k = 120
\n" ); document.write( "Formula: V = 120/P
\n" ); document.write( " V = 120/10
\n" ); document.write( "Volume = 12 pounds per sq inch.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
