Robert is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, he made some three point shots and some free throws (worth one

point each). Robert made a total of 9 shots altogether and scored a total of 23 points. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of three point shots Robert made and the number of free throws he made. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer:

let t = number of three-point shots

let f = number of free throw shots

Step-by-step explanation:

t + f = 9      (he made a total of 9 shots altogether)

3t + 1f = 23   (number of shots multiplied by their point value)

substitution method:   t = 9 - f

                                    3(9 - f) + f = 23

                                     27 - 3f + f = 23

                                      -2f = -4

                                         f = 2

find 't':                               t + 2 = 9

                                         t = 7

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The numbers of tickets in advanced sold was 260 and the numbers of tickets at the door sold was 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the numbers of tickets in advanced sold

y ---> the numbers of tickets at the door sold

we know that

325 tickets are sold

so

x+y=325 ----> equation A

$1430 is collected

so

4x+6y=1,430 ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (260,65)

see the attached figure

therefore

The numbers of tickets in advanced sold was 260 and the numbers of tickets at the door sold was 65
