What is Boyle's law?

The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure, at constant temperature.

The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its pressure, at constant temperature.

The pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its temperature, at constant volume.

The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume, at constant pressure.
