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
