At a basketball game, a team made 53 successful shots. They were a combination of 1- and 2-point shots. The team scored 91 points in all. Write and solve a system of equations to find the number of each type of shot.

15 1-point and 38 2-point shots

Step-by-step explanation:

x: 1 point shots

y: 2 point shots

x + y = 53 (1)

1(x) + 2(y) = 91 (2)

From (1), x = 53 - y

In (2),

(53 - y) + 2y = 91

53 + y = 91

y = 91 - 53 = 38

x = 53 - 38 = 15

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.
