Answer:

T=C*P*V

Explanation:

It is said that a variable - let's call 'y' -, is proportional to another - let's call it 'x' - if x and y are multiplicatively connected to a constant 'C'. It means that their product (x*y) can be always equaled to the constant 'C' or their division (\frac{x}{y}) can be always equaled to 'C'. The first case is the case of the inverse proportionality: It is said that x and y are inversely proportional if

x*y=C

The second case is the case of the direct proportionality: It is said that x and y are directly proportional if

\frac{x}{y} =C : x is directly proportional to y.

or

\frac{y}{x} =C : y is directly proportional to x.

Always that any text does not specify about directly or inversely proportionality, it is assumed to mean directly automatically.

For our case, we are said that the temperature T is proportional to the pressure P and the volume V (we assume that it means directly); it is a double proportionality but follows the same rules:

If T were just proportional to P, we would have:

\frac{T}{P} =C

If T were just proportional to V, we would have:

\frac{T}{V} =C

As T is proportional to both P and V, the right equation is:

\frac{T}{P*V}=C

In order to isolate the temperature, let's multiply (P*V) at each side of the equation:

\frac{T}{P*V}*(P*V)=C*(P*V)\\T=C*P*V

You are driving home from school steadily at for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to You arrive home after driving 4.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

Question is incomplete

Assuming the question you have asked is

You are driving home from school steadily at 95 km/h for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65 km/h. You arrive home after driving 4.5 h.

given,

speed of 95 km/h for 180 km

due to rain

speed is reduced to 65 km/h

distance traveled in 4.5 hour

time taken to travel 180 km

d = s x t

t = \dfrac{180}{95}

     t = 1.9 hr

distance traveled in time, t' = 4.5-1.9 = 2.6 hr

Speed of vehicle = 65 Km/h

d' = s x t'

d' = 65 x 2.6

d'= 169 Km

total distance your hometown from school

D = d + d'

D = 180 + 169

D = 349 Km
