Answer:
108points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Caleb score be x and that of Mike be y. If Caleb and Mike both score the same amount of points in a game, then x = y.
The total number of option = x+y
Now, If Caleb has fifteen less than the total number of options, then;
x =(x+y)-15
x -(x+y)+15 = 0
x-x-y = -15
-y = -15
y = 15
Also if Mike has twice the total number of points decreased 201, then;
y = 2(x+y)-201
Since y = 15
15 = 2(x+15)-201
15 = 2x+30-201
15 = 2x-171
2x = 15+171
2x = 186
x = 186/2
x = 93
The total number of points they have altogether is x+y
x+y = 15+93
x+y = 108
Hence the total points that they have altogether is 108points
