The Warriors beat the Hawks in basketball. The Warriors scored six less than triple the Hawk's point total. The combined score for the two teams was 66. How many points did each team score?

Warriors scored 48 points and Hawk score 18 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Warriors beat the Hawks in basketball.

Let hawk's point be h.

Warriors score,

w=3h-6

w-3h=-6 ...(1)

The combined score for the two teams was 66.

w+h=66 ...(2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

w+h-(w-3h) = 66-(-6)

w+h-w+3h = 72

4h = 72

h = 18

Put the value of h in equation (2).

w+18=66

w = 48

So, Warriors scored 48 points and Hawk score 18 points.
