I graphed the equation using an online graphing calculator and got the vertex of (-5, 49) therefore y = 49
Answer: The initial volume is 593.76mL
Step-by-step explanation:
As you do not say anithing about the pressure, i guess that the pressure remains constant.
If the gas is an ideal gas, we have:
P*V = n*R*T
where P is pressure, n is number of moles and R is a constant.
Now, initially we have:
P*Vi = n*R*315°C
finally we have:
P*825mL = n*R*452°C
Now we can take the quiotient of those two equations and get:
(P*Vi)/(P*852mL) = (n*R*315°C)/( n*R*452°C)
Now we have:
Vi/852mL = 315/452
Vi = (315/452)*852mL = 593.76mL
So when we expand the gas at constant pressure, we increase the temperature.
8 feet is the longest side so it would be the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagorean formula to check.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2+5^2 = 8^2
9 + 25 = 64
34 = 64
This is obviously not true si it is not a right triangle.
