For the music math problems, fill in the blank with the number that would make the sentence true. An example is: + = + ____= (1 point) Responses Image with alt text: A half note is shown. Image with alt text: A quarter rest is shown. Image with alt text: A whole note is shown.

Answer 1

To solve the music math problem, we need to understand the values of the notes and rests involved.

• A half note is worth 2 beats.
• A quarter rest is worth 1 beat.
• A whole note is worth 4 beats.

Now we can set up the equation based on the image description you provided:

Half Note (2 beats) + Quarter Rest (1 beat) = Whole Note (4 beats)

Let's express that mathematically:

\[ 2 + 1 = 4 \] \[ 3 \neq 4 \]

Therefore, a quarter note can't equal a whole note in value.

Instead, you're likely looking for a way to balance the values. We can formulate the equation based on the values we have:

If we want to represent the whole note in terms of what we've got:

\[ 2 + 1 + x = 4 \] To find \( x \):

\[ 3 + x = 4 \] \[ x = 1 \]

So, the missing value to make the equation true is 1. If you need it in the context of the notes, it represents a quarter note, which has the same value as a quarter rest.

Thus, the answer to fill in the blank would be 1.
