Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Music Worksheets
Explanation:
We are given the beat values for different musical notes:

- Whole note (○) = 4 beats
- Half note (𝅗𝅥) = 2 beats
- Quarter note (𝅘𝅥) = 1 beat
- Eighth note (𝅘𝅥𝅮) = ½ beat

Now we solve each part using these values.

a. ○ + ○ = 4 + 4 = 8 beats
b. 𝅘𝅥 + ○ = 1 + 4 = 5 beats
c. 𝅘𝅥 + ○ = 1 + 4 = 5 beats *(same as b)*
d. 𝅘𝅥𝅮 + ○ = ½ + 4 = 4.5 beats (or 4½ beats)
e. 𝅘𝅥 + 𝅘𝅥 = 1 + 1 = 2 beats
f. 𝅘𝅥𝅮 + 𝅘𝅥𝅮 = ½ + ½ = 1 beat
g. 𝅗𝅥 + 𝅘𝅥 = 2 + 1 = 3 beats
h. 𝅘𝅥𝅮 + ○ = ½ + 4 = 4.5 beats (same as d)
i. ○ + ○ + 𝅘𝅥 = 4 + 4 + 1 = 9 beats
j. 𝅘𝅥 + 𝅘𝅥 = 1 + 1 = 2 beats *(same as e)*
k. ○ + 𝅘𝅥 + 𝅘𝅥 + 𝅘𝅥 = 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 7 beats

Let me double-check each:

a. 4+4 = 8
b. 1+4 = 5
c. same as b → 5
d. 0.5 + 4 = 4.5
e. 1+1 = 2
f. 0.5+0.5 = 1
g. 2+1 = 3
h. same as d → 4.5
i. 4+4+1 = 9
j. same as e → 2
k. 4+1+1+1 = 7

All correct.

Final Answer:
a. 8
b. 5
c. 5
d. 4.5
e. 2
f. 1
g. 3
h. 4.5
i. 9
j. 2
k. 7
