X+y=23 (x and y added equal the number of baskets made)

2x+3y=53 (since each basket is worth a certain amount of points, x and y must be multiplied by their amount of baskets and added together to get the total number of points)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

<h2>Tatiana scored 7 three points baskets, and 16 two-points baskets.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

  • Tatiana made 23 baskets.
  • x represents the two-point baskets.
  • y represents the three-point baskets.
  • Tatiana scored 53 points.

The expression for the 23 baskets made by Tatiana would be:

x+y=23

In words, the sum of both type of scored baskets sum 23.

The expression for the total points scored would be:

2x+3y=53

In words, baskets of two points and three points sum 53 total points scored by Tatiana.

Now, we isolate x in the first equation and replace it in the second equation:

x=23-y\\2(23-y)+3y=53\\46-2y+3y=53\\y=53-46\\y=7

Replacing this value in the first equation, we have:

x+y=23\\x=23-7=16

Therefore, Tatiana scored 7 three points baskets, and 16 two-points baskets.
