Marnie practiced her basketball dribbling. after two tries, she had bounced the ball 88 times. on the second try, she had 2 fewer bouncers than 8 times the number of bounces she had on the first try. how many bounces did she have on the second try?

Marnie has bounced basketball 78 times on the second try.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of times ball dribble before first try be x and number of times of dribble before second try be y.

Total number of times ball dribbled after two tries = 88

x+ y = 88 ...[1]

After first try that before second try. she has 2 fewer dribbles than 8x.

y=8x-2...[2]

Putting value of y in [1], we gte:

x = 10

y = 8 × 10 - 2 = 78

Marnie has bounced basketball 78 times on the second try.
