Answer:
Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week. For each 3 hours that he practices the violin, he practices 2.5 hours of cello. So
3h violin - 2.5h cello
9h violin - xh cello


He practiced 7.5 hours of cello, the same as Nina.
For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours. So:
3h viola - 2h cello
xh viola - 7.5h cello



Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
Answer:
x=-2
y= 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
10x – 2y = -36-----------1
7x – 2y = -30--------------2
-Subtract to eliminate y
3x-0= -6
3x= -6
x= -6/3
x= -2
Put x= -2 in
7(-2)– 2y = -30
-14-2y=-30
-14+30=2y
16=2y
y= 16/2
y= 8
