As the temperature of a gas increases, the kinetic energy of the gas particles will also increase. As the temperature of the gas increase, the gas particles gains more energy to move faster, they thus collide more with one another and with the wall of the container, thus increasing pressure as well. So, as the temperature of a gas increases, the kinetic energy increases and the pressure increases as well if the gas is inside an inflexible container.
