Answer:

There are 2 points for a field goal, and 1 point for a free throw.

 x=Points scored for a field goal

 y=Points scored for a free throw

It is also given that, you have scored at least 3 points in every game this season, and have a high season score of 15 points in one game.

 2x+y≤15

x+y≥3

Plotting the inequality on two dimensional xy plane

The solution set through graph is attached below.

One possible solution is

x=5 field goals

y=5 free throw

⇒In a game I have made 4 field goals and 3 free throws. So total number of points scored in game will be 4×2+3=11 points.

length = -------------------- = 12 in

               (15 in)(4 in)

The box is 12 inches long.
