Answer:

Explanation:

Part A:

x = # of days

R: 1 hr + 3/4 hr/day(x)

J: 4 hr + 1/2 hr/day(x)

1 + 3/4x = 4 + 1/2x

3/4x - 2/4x = 3

1/4x = 3

x = 12 days

After 12 days of practicing (not including the first Saturday), they each will have practiced 10 hours

Part B:

Saturday plus 12 more days →

Saturday 1-Sun 2- Mon 3-Tues 4-Wed 5-Thurs 6-Fri 7-Sat 8-Sun 9-Mon 10-Tues 11-Wed 12-Thursday

They both will have practiced 10 hours on the second Thursday after they started on Saturday
