Answer:

He made 36 two point shots and 28 one-point foul shots

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of two point shots be x and number one-point foul shots be y.

We are told that the total number of shots are 64 so:

x + y = 64  ⇔ y = 64 - x ...(1)

We are also told that he scored 100 points.

2x + y = 100 ...(2)

We can now solve these two equations simultaneously by substituting equation (1) and (2)

2x + y = 100

2x + (64 - x) = 100

       x = 36

which implies that y = 28
