THIS IS AN EXAMPLE:

Answer: Bradley scored 854 points and Harner scored 748 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by representing the problem mathematically. "B" will represent Bradley's score, and "H" will represent Harner's score.

B+H=1602 represents that the sum of the scores is 1602.

B-H=106 represents that Bradley has 106 more points than Harner.

Now, combine the like terms in the two equations to get 2B=1708 . Now divide each side by two to find that Bradley scored 854 points.

Now, we can just subtract Bradley's score from the total score to get Harner's score. 1602-854=748, so Harner scored 748 points.
