Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that During their last game, the Miami Dolphins scored 6 times, for a total score of 30 points. They scored 7 points for each touchdown and 3 points for each field goal.

We need to write and solve the system of equations to find the total touchdowns and field goals scored.

Let x represents the number of touchdowns.

Let y be the number of field goals.

It is given that the Miami Dolphins scored 6 times

....(1)

They scored 7 points for each touchdown and 3 points for each field goal.

The total score is 30 points:

...(2)

Put the value of x from equation (1) into equation (2).

Put y = 3 in equation 1.
