this can help too:
PxV=nxRxT
if P goes up with V constant, T goes up
if V goes up with P const, T goes up
if P goes up and V goes down, T is const.

These are all applications of gas laws. See your chem book for a discussion of gas laws.
First question, as pressure increases, volume decreases if temperature is constant . (Boyle's law)
Second question: As volume increase, pressure must decrease if temperature is constant. (Boyle's law)
Third question: As pressure increases, temperature increases if volume is constant. (Gay-Lassac law)

HOPE THIS HELPS ;>)
