3x−2y=12;−3x+8y=−6

Step: Solve3x−2y=12for x:

3x−2y=12

3x−2y+2y=12+2y(Add 2y to both sides)

3x=2y+12

3x

Anaya makes 14 baskets during her game. Some of these baskets were worth two points and others were worth three points. In total
Valentin [98]

Answer:she made 12 two points basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of baskets that were worth two points.

Let y represent the number of baskets that were worth three points.

Anaya makes 14 baskets during her game.

This means that

x + y = 14

Some of these baskets were worth two points and others were worth three points. In total she scored 30 points. His means that

2x + 3y = 30 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 14 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(14 - y) + 3y = 30

28 - 2y + 3y = 30

- 2y + 3y = 30 - 28

y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into x = 14 - y, it becomes

x = 14 - 2

x = 12
