For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours.
If Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week and Juan and Nina practiced the cello for the same amount of time, then Nina practiced the viola for hours last week.

Respuesta :

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

[tex]3x = 9*2.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 7.5[/tex]

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

[tex]2x = 3*7.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 7.5*1.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 11.25[/tex]

Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
