document.write( "Question 1058726: The volume V of a given mass of gas varies directly as the temperature T and inversely as the pressure P. A measuring device is calibrated to give V=162.4 in^3 when T=290 degrees and P=25 lb/in^2. Write an equation to represent the situation. What is the volume on this device when the temperature is 340 degrees and the pressure is 20 lb/in2? \n" ); document.write( "
