Simplifying is basically 1 + 1, so the answer is 2, or 8/4 whichever you prefer.

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
Unlike bony fish, sharks do not have gas-filled swim bladders for buoyancy. Instead, sharks rely on a large liver filled with oil that contains squalene, and their cartilage, which is about half the normal density of bone.
