Jaxson is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, he made some free throws (worth one point each) and some two point shots. Jaxson scored a total of 18 points and made 3 more two point shots than free throws. Determine the number of free throws Jaxson made and the number of two point shots he made.

Jaxson made 4 free throws and 7 two points shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total points made by Jaxson = 18 points

Free throw = 1 point

Let,

x be the number of free throws

y be the number of two point shots

According to given statement;

x+2y=18     Eqn 1

y = x+3     Eqn 2

Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

Dividing both sides by 3

Putting x=4 in Eqn 2

Jaxson made 4 free throws and 7 two points shots.

a. turk and mcalister

b. howard, mission, and market

c. yes. since streets end some do not cross yet are not parallel to others. example: mcalister and 5th

step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines are lines which do not intersect ever and look a lot like railroad tracks. turk, mcalister and golden gate are examples of these.

intersect are streets which cross each other and a car on one can reach the other. howard, mission, and market intersect with 6th.

skew lines are lines which neither intersect nor are parallel. these lines exist here because some streets end and never intersect another like mcalister and 5th.
