Ava is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, she made some three point shots and some two point shots. Ava made a total of 12 shots altogether and scored a total of 28 points. Determine the number of three point shots Ava made and the number of two point shots she made.

the the number of three point shots that Ava made is 8

the number of two point shots that Ava made is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the the number of three point shots that Ava made. Let y represent the number of two point shots that Ava made.

Ava made a total of 12 shots altogether. This means that

x + y = 12

She scored a total of 28 points. This means that

2x + 3y = 28 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 12 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(12 - y) + 3y = 28

24 - 2y + 3y = 28

- 2y + 3y = 28 - 24

y = 4

x = 12 - y = 12 - 4

x = 8

days of the week

step-by-step explanation:

javier earned more money then kyle, so that won't always be a constant term, but the days of the week do not change so that term is always constant.
