    42 minutes are spent on practicing flip tricks and 48 minutes are spent on practicing slides.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total practicing time = 90 minutes

    Ratio of time spent on flip tricks to slides = 7:8

    Let, x be the total time spent on flip tricks and slides, therefore,

    Time spent of flip tricks and slides = 7x+8x = 15x

    Total time spent practicing = 15x

    Dividing both sides by 15

    Time spent of flip tricks = 7x = 7*6 = 42 minutes

    Time spent on slides = 8x = 8*6 = 48 minutes

    42 minutes are spent on practicing flip tricks and 48 minutes are spent on practicing slides.
