5/6! Because....1 1/4 can be converted to 5/4 so then the equation would be 5/4-5/12 but when your subtracting the numbers HAVE to have the same denominator and the LCM of 4 and 12 is 12 so then the equation would be 15/12 (because when you change the denominator you also have to multiply the LCM divided by the number which would be 3 times 5) so anyyywwwaaaayyy the equation would be 15/12-5/12=10/12 which can be simplified to 5/6!!!!!!!!! And there u have it!

One and one-fourth equals to 5 over 4
5/4 times 3/3 equals to 15/12
subtract 5/12 from 15/12
the answer is 10/12
simplest form is 5/6
hope it helped

Under which conditions does the molar volume of a gas decrease? A. at 273 K and at 2.0 atm. B. at 273 K and at 0.5 atm. C. at 40
Sloan [31]
We first assume that this gas is an ideal gas and we use the ideal gas equation to determine the answer. It is expressed as:

PV = nRT

Molar volume can be obtained from the equation by V/n.

V/n = RT/P

Therefore, the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A, <span>at 273 K and at 2.0 atm.</span>

Average movie prices in the United States​ are, in​ general, lower than in other countries. It would cost ​$79.38 to buy three t
Marina86 [1]
3j + 2s = 79.38
3s + 2j = 75.12.  3s + 2j - 3s = -3s + 75.12.  2j/2 = -3/2s + 75.12/2.
j = -1.5s +  37.56
 Then you can use substitution
3(-1.5s + 37.56) + 2s = 79.38
-4.5s + 112.68 + 2s = 79.38
-2.5s + 112.68 - 112.68 = 79.38 - 112.68
-2.5s = -33.30
-2.5s/-2.5 = -33.30/-2.5
s = 13.32
So s is 13.32 so you plug that back in and solve for j
3j + 26.64 = 79.38
3j + 26.64 - 26.64 = 79.38 - 26.64
3j = 52.74
3j/3 = 52.74/3
j = 17.58
So in Japan tickets average 17.58 and in Switzerland they average 13.32

Which equation can be used to solve for x in the following diagram?
Irina-Kira [14]
I think 3x+12+x=180
because it is a supplementary angle and those equal 180
the sum of both sides on the straight line make 180

and if you were to solve it
it would be
= 42
