Bradley"s lifelong dream was to become an artist, a aspiration he had cherished for a long time but never truly pursued. However, he made the decision to give it a try. Bradley wished to join a painting class at a nearby college, but he encountered an obstacle. The administrator informed him, "You must first take our design and drawing courses." Fortunately, he still had the opportunity to enroll in those courses, but it meant that Bradley would have to allocate twice as much time per week as he had initially planned. Nonetheless, he was eager to acquire the necessary skills. The design course proved to be quite challenging for him, but he found a way to cope with it.

and drawing courses required Bradley to attend 3 hours per week for each course. Since he needed to take both courses, he would have to allocate a total of 6 hours per week.

To calculate the additional time Bradley would have to allocate, we can subtract his initial planned time from the total time required. Let"s denote his initial planned time as \(x\) hours per week.

Initially, Bradley planned to allocate \(x\) hours per week for the painting class. However, after enrolling in the design and drawing courses, he would need to allocate an additional 6 hours per week. Therefore, his total time per week would be \(x + 6\) hours.

The problem states that his new allocation of time would be twice as much as his initial planned time. This can be expressed as \(x + 6 = 2x\).

To find the value of \(x\), we can subtract \(x\) from both sides of the equation:

\(x + 6 - x = 2x - x\)

Simplifying the equation, we get:

\(6 = x\)

Hence, Bradley"s initial planned time for the painting class was 6 hours per week.

In conclusion, to pursue his dream of becoming an artist, Bradley had to allocate 6 hours per week for the design and drawing courses, which was twice the amount of time he initially planned.
