Respuesta :

Answer:

10.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

This week Andres will practice with his band for

[tex]1\frac{1}{2} \ means\ \frac{3}{2} \ hours[/tex] on Monday

[tex]1\frac{3}{4} \ means\ \frac{7}{4} \ hours[/tex]  on Tuesday

2 hours Wednesday.

Next week Andres will practice with his band for the same number of hours on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.

Question asked:

What was the total number of hours Andres will practice with his band over these 6 days?

Solution:

As she practice for two weeks, three days of each week:

On two Monday, she will practice = [tex]\frac{3}{2} + \frac{3}{2} =\frac{3+3}{2} =\frac{6}{2} =3\ hours[/tex]

On two Tuesday, she will practice = [tex]\frac{7}{4} +\frac{7}{4}=\frac{7+7}{4} =\frac{14}{4} =\frac{7}{2} \ hours[/tex]

On two Wednesday, she will practice = [tex]2+2=4 \ hours[/tex]

Total hours, she will practice over 6 days  [tex]=3+\frac{7}{2} +4[/tex]

                                                                      [tex]=7+\frac{7}{2} \\ \\ =\frac{2\times7+7}{2} \\ \\ =\frac{21}{2} \\ \\ =10.5\ hours[/tex]

Thus, Andres will practice 10.5 hours with his band over these 6 days.

The total number of hours andres will practice with his band over these 6 days is 10 1/2 hours

Given:

Day 1 = 1 1/2 hours

Day 2 = 1 3/4 hours

Day 3 = 2 hours

The total number of hours for six days = 2(1 1/2) + 2(1 3/4) + 2(2)

= 2(3/2) + 2(7/4) + 4

= 6/2 + 14/4 + 4

= 3 + 14/4 + 4

= 7 + 14/4

= (28+14) / 4

= 42 / 4

= 10 2/4

= 10 1/2 hours

Therefore, the total number of hours andres will practice with his band over these 6 days is 10 1/2 hours
