17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made
Solution:
Given that,
At a basketball game, a team made 56 successful shots
They were a combination of 1- and 2-point shots
Let "x" be the number of 1 point shots
Then, 56 - x is the number of two point shots
The team scored 95 points in all
Therefore,
1(number of 1 point shots) + 2(number of two point shots) = 95
x + 2(56 - x) = 95
x + 112 - 2x = 95
x = 112 - 95
x = 17
Then, number of two point shots = 56 - x = 56 - 17 = 39
Thus 17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made

Answer:
m = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/3m = -12
multiply both sides of the equation by 3:
-2/3m(3) = -12(3)
simplify:
-2m = -36
divide both sides by -2:
-2m/-2 = -36/-2
simplify:
m = 18
The coefficient of y = 3
coefficient = the constant in front of a variable
Constant means that the number will not change.
