The number of two-points shots made is 14

The number of free throws made is 10

<h3>What is the number of two-points shots and free throws made?</h3>

The first step is to formulate a set of linear equations that represent the information in the question:

x + y = 24 equation 1

2x + y = 38  equation 2

Where:

  • x = number of two-point shots made
  • y = number of free throws made

The linear equations would be solved using the elimination method.

In order to determine the value of x, take the following steps:

Subtract  equation 1 from  equation 2

x = 14

Substitute for x in  equation 1

14 + y = 24

Combine similar terms:

y = 24 - 14

Add similar terms together

y = 10

0.04 of a chance
because 1 chapter has 20 pages and the book has 500
so the chance of you flipping to chapter 12 out of 500 pages is 4% of a chance
