Let x represent a 2-point basket, and y represent a 3-point basket.
Basket equation: x + y = 16
Point equation 2x + 3y = 39
Solve using system of equations:
if x + y = 16, then x = 16 - y
Plug into the second equation:
2(16-y) + 3y = 39
32 - 2y + 3y = 39
32 + y = 39
y = 7
So the number of 3-point baskets scored was 7. Hope this helps, let me know if there’s a step you don’t understand! :)

Answer:
Brother's money = $6
Money I have = $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:
<em>I have 3 times as much money as my brother:
</em>
Money I have = 3x
Where x is the money that my brother has:
Brother's money = x
<em>Our total is $24
</em>
So, 3x+x =24
Solving for x
3x+x=24
4x =24
x =24/4
x = 6
Replacing with the value of x.
Brother’s money = x = $6
Money i have = 3x =3(6) = $18
