Sydney is a high school basketball player. in a particular game, she made some two point shots and some free throws (worth one point each). sydney scored a total of 12 points and made 4 times as many free throws as two point shots. determine the number of two point shots sydney made and the number of free throws she made.

This basketball player scored 9 points via free throws (9 at 1 point each), 16 points via 8 two-point shots made, and 15 points via 5 three-point shots made.

Step-by-step explanation:

One should then re=read each statement presented in the paragraph to be sure that these numbers make a true statement out of every one of the sentences in this paragraph. I checked them and they do ! My method to solve this was to utilize row-reduced echelon form, a technique a learned in college about 40 years ago. (After i dusted it off, of course.)

16 points via 8 two-point shots, and 15 points via 5 three-point shots.

hope this helps.
