17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made

Solution:

Given that,

At a basketball​ game, a team made 56 successful shots

They were a combination of​ 1- and​ 2-point shots

Let "x" be the number of 1 point shots

Then, 56 - x is the number of two point shots

The team scored 95 points in all

Therefore,

1(number of 1 point shots) + 2(number of two point shots) = 95

x + 2(56 - x) = 95

x + 112 - 2x = 95

x = 112 - 95

x = 17

Then, number of two point shots = 56 - x = 56 - 17 = 39

Thus 17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made

The given operation involves just swapping the two rows, so carrying out R_1\leftrightarrow R_2 on the matrix gives

\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}5&5&5\\1&-\dfrac23&5\end{array}\right]\to\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&-\dfrac23&5\\5&5&5\end{array}\right]
