when the volume is halved, the pressure doubles due to the inverse relationship described by Boyle's law .
And when the temperature is doubles , the pressure is further doubled as explained by the combined gas law.
the pressure change from the volume change is a factor of 2 , and the pressure change from the temperature change is also a factor of 2 .
therefore,the total change in pressure is 2×2=4
the final pressure is P2=4P1
