Rachel newton scored 26 points in a recent basketball game without making any 3-point shots. she scored 19 times, making several free throws worth 1 point each and several field goals worth two points each. how many 2-point field goals did she make?

She made 7  field goals

Step-by-step explanation:

With the data we can make 2 equations

1 x + 2 y= 26

x+y=19  and y=19-x

Where,

x= free throws

y=field goals

Replacing y in the first equation

1 x + 2 (19-x)= 26

1 x + 38-2x= 26

1 x - 2x= 26 - 38

- 1x= -12

x=12

y=19-12

y=7

use this formula:

p(a\b) = p(a and b)/p(b).

take it from here.
