Answer:

5.29 atm

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we are finding the new pressure

[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]P_2 = \frac{489 \times 2.75}{254} = \frac{1344.75}{254} \\ = 5.294291...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

5.29 atm

Hope this helps you
