The pressures given are the partical pressures of the two gases.
The law of Dalton or of the partial pressures states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures of all the gases.
So, in this case:
Total pressure = pressure of nitrogen + pressure of carbon dioxyde.
Of course both terms must be in the same units.
i have found that the pressures for this problem are:
