Answer:
Boyle's law states that as the volume of a gas decreases, the pressure of that gas increases if other variables such as temperature and the number of moles are held constant. In other words, Boyle's law states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related. The law can by represented by the following equations:
P1V1 = P2V2 = constant (eq.1)
P1 = constant / V1 (eq.2)
P1 = constant (1/ V1) (eq.3)
where P is the pressure, V is the volume, and the subscripts 1 and 2 refer to the initial state before and the final state after the pressure-volume change, respectively. Eq. 2 shows more clearly that there is an inverse relationship between pressure and volume. Since volume is in the denominator, as it increases, the pressure decreases. Conversely, as the voloume decreases, the pressure increases.

Graphical representation of Boyle's law: Graph between P and V at constant temperature is called isotherm and is an equilateral (or rectangular) hyperbola.
At constant mass and temperature density of a gas is directly proportional to its pressure and inversely proportional to its volume.
