Both of the sides equal 2 when you divide them
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
well using the theorem we have
![\frac{6}{9}=\frac{x}{12}\\\\\frac{2}{3}=\frac{x}{12}\\\\12[\frac{2}{3}]=12[\frac{x}{12}]\\\\4\cdot 2=x\\\\x=8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B6%7D%7B9%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C12%5B%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%5D%3D12%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C4%5Ccdot%202%3Dx%5C%5C%5C%5Cx%3D8)
Correct question:
Every day Kim practice volleyball and clarinet each day she practices volleyball for 2.5 hours if after 8 days she practices both volleyball and the clarinet for a total of 36 hours how many hours per day did Kim practice clarinet.
Answer: 2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Everyday Kim practices volleyball and clarinet = v/ball + clarinet
Everyday volleyball practice = 2.5hours
That is clarinet(hours) + 2.5 hours of volleyball
After 8 day, total practice hours of both volleyball and clarinet equals 36 hours
The above information can be represented mathematically as thus:
Let h = hours per day of clarinet
8(h + 2.5) = 36
8h + 20 = 36
8h = 36 - 20
8h = 16
h = 16/8
h = 2
