Answer:

17 for 1 point shots and 35 for two point shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of 1 point shots be x

let the number of 2 point shots be y

 

x + y = 52          (1)

x + 2y = 87        (2)

 

subtracting (1) from (2)

 

y = 35

 

from (1) x = 52 - y = 52 - 35 = 17

 

Hence number of 1 pointers = 17

 

number of 2 point shots = 35

 

checking; 17 + 35 =52 ; and 17+ 2*35 = 87
