Question

The basketball team scored 28 pointers in their game on Wednesday. They scored twice as many two-pointers as three-pointers. How many two-pointers did they score?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of two-pointer score by team is 14  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total pointer scored by team = 28

Let three-pointer = x

So, Two-pointer = twice three-pointer

Or, Two-pointer = 2x

Now, Two-pointer + three-pointer = 28

Or, (2x) + x = 28

Or, 3x = 28

∴     x = $\frac{28}{3}$ = 7

So The two-pointer = 2x = 2×7 = 14

Hence The number of two-pointer score by team is 14   Answer
