If 1 Pa is equal to 145 psi, what algebraic equation is needed to find out how many MPa there are in 725 psi? 4. The pressure on the Earth's crust in region A is three times greater than the pressure on Earth's crust in region B. The pressure in region B is 9 MPa. Write and solve an algebraic equation to find the pressure in region A.

3. If 1 Pa is equal to 145 psi, what algebraic equation is needed to find out how many MPa there are in 725 psi? 4. The pressure on the Earth's crust in region A is three times greater than the pressure on Earth's crust in region B. The pressure in region B is 9 MPa. Write and solve an algebraic equation to find the pressure in region A.
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that, 

1 Pa = 145 psi

So, 1 psi = (1/145 ) Pa

So, x psi = (x/145) Pa....... This is algebraic equation to calculate psi in Pa

So, 725 psi = (725/145) Pa = 5 Pa
