Answer:

B.p(v)=\frac{320}{v}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The pressure of gas p(v) varies inversely with the volume of gas v.

Pressure of gas measures=8kg/cm^3

Volume of gas=40cm^3

We have to find the equation that can be used to find the pressure of the gas when its volume is changed.

According to question

p(v)\propto\frac{1}{v}

p(v)=\frac{k}{v}

Where k=proportionality constant

Substitute the given values then, we get

8=\frac{k}{40}

k=8\times 40=320

Substitute the value of k then, we get

p(v)=\frac{320}{v}

Hence,option B is true.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since p and v vary inversely then the equation relating them is

p = \frac{k}{v} ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the condition p = 8 when v = 40

k = pv = 8 × 40 = 320

⇒ p(v) = \frac{320}{v} → B

A system of equations is given below. y=1/2x-3 and -1/2x-3. Which of the following statements best describes the two lines?
pantera1 [17]

"They have different slopes but the same y-intercept, so they have one solution" is the statement which best describes the two lines.

Answer: Option D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given equations:

           y=\left(\frac{1}{2} \times x\right)-3

           y=\left(-\frac{1}{2} \times x\right)-3

As we know that the slope intercept form of a line is  

                             y = m x + c  

So, from equation 1 and equation 2 we can see that

              m_{1}=\frac{1}{2} \quad \text { and } c_{1}=-3

              m_{2}=-\frac{1}{2} \text { and } c_{2}=-3

So, from the above expressions, we can say that both lines have different slopes but have same y – intercept with one common solution when x = 0.
