Answer:

Katie made a mistake.   P = (nRT)/P is the correct equation, not V = PnRT

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the ideal gas law is PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the moles of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature, in Kelvin.

Solving for V:

PV = nRT

V = (nRT)/P

Katie did not solve the equation corretly.  To move V from the left to the right side of the equation, she needed to divide both sides by P:

PV = nRT

PV/V = (nRT)/P

P = (nRT)/P is the correct equation

If f(x) is a third degree polynomial function and g(x) = f(–2x), which of the following is NOT true?
valina [46]

Answer:

f(x) and g(x) have the same x-intercepts (is <em>not true</em>)

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) is a reflection across the y-axis and a horizontal compression of f(x). In general those transformations will move the x-intercepts. (The y-intercept and the number of x-intercepts will remain unchanged.)

_____

<em>Comment on the question/answer</em>

f(x) = x^3 is a 3rd degree polynomial. When transformed to g(x) = -8x^2, its only x-intercept (x=0) remains the same. The answer above will not apply in any instance where the only x-intercept is on the line of reflection. (The question is flawed in that it does not make any exception for such functions.)
