The value of x is 30; hence 4x is equal to 120. That is because the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180. So, add x, x and 4x together, you get 6x. Divide 180 by 6, you get 30. Hope this helped!
I believe the answer is 275 miles. Hope this helps!
Wen you deduct an amount from something
It was stated in the problem that a given volume of a is inversely proportional with the pressure of the system. It means that the as the volume increases, the pressure would decrease and as the volume decreases, the pressure would increase. We would express it as:
V α 1/P
To change it to an equality, we introduce a proportionality constant, k. We do as follows:
V = k/P
So, to determine what is asked, we need to first calculate for the value of k.
V = k/P
At V = 160 m^3 P = 108 cmHg
160 = k / (108)
k = 17280
Thus, at P = 87 cmHg
V = 17280 / 87
V = 198.62 m^3
