Steph Curry scored 32 points in a recent
basketball game. All of his points came from
lay-ups (worth 2 points each) and 3-point field
goals (worth 3 points each). He had a combined
total of 13 lay-ups and 3-point field goals. How
many lay-ups and how many 3-point field goals
did he have in that game?

Respuesta :

Answer:

7 lay-ups and 6 3-point field  goals were there.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there are x lay-ups and y 3-point field goals that he has in that game.

So, x + y = 13 ........ (1)

And, 2x + 3y = 32 ...... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

3y - 2y = 32 - 26

⇒ y = 6

Then x = 13 - 6 = 7

Therefore, 7 lay-ups and 6 3-point field goals were there. (Answer)
