Identify Equation: Identify the correct equation to represent the total weekly practice hours. The team practices 4 days a week, with 3 hours in the morning each day. The afternoon practice length is unknown, represented by h. The total weekly practice hours are 20. The equation should account for both morning and afternoon sessions over 4 days.
Set Up Equation: Set up the equation based on the total hours of practice. Each day includes 3 hours in the morning and h hours in the afternoon, multiplied by 4 days: 4(3+h)=20.
Solve Equation for h: Solve the equation for h. Start by simplifying inside the parentheses: 4(3+h)=20 becomes 12+4h=20.
Subtract to Isolate h: Subtract 12 from both sides to isolate the term with h: 4h=20−12, which simplifies to 4h=8.
Divide to Solve h: Divide both sides by 4 to solve for h: h=48, which simplifies to h=2.
