The highest scorer of the women's basketball championship was Jessica Bradley. She scored 114 more points than Tina Harner, her teammate. Together, Bradley and
Harner scored 1560 points. How many points did each player score during the championship?

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE:

Bradley scored 854 points and Harner scored 748 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by representing the problem mathematically.  "B" will represent Bradley's score, and "H" will represent Harner's score.

B+H=1602 represents that the sum of the scores is 1602.

B-H=106 represents that Bradley has 106 more points than Harner.

Now, combine the like terms in the two equations to get 2B=1708 .  Now divide each side by two to find that Bradley scored 854 points.

Now, we can just subtract Bradley's score from the total score to get Harner's score.  1602-854=748, so Harner scored 748 points.
