In basketball one point is scored for a free-throw and two points for a field goal if a team scored 96 points while making 18 free throws how many field goals were made

 x = free throws, y = field goals

x + 2y = 96...x = 18
18 + 2y = 96
2y = 96 - 18
2y = 78
y = 78/2
y = 39

so there were 18 free throws totaling 18 points and there were 39 field goals totaling 39(2) = 78 pointsfor a total of (78 + 18) = 96 points

The answer is e &
