During the woman's basketball championship game, team A scored 2 more points than team B. Together, both teams scored a total of 144 points. How many points did the champion team A score during the game?

Respuesta :

They both scored a total of 144 points. A had 2+ the amount of points of B.

144/2 = 72.

73 to 71 will be the score.

A scored 73 points.
A = B + 2
A + B = 144

B + 2 + B = 144
2B = 144 - 2
2B = 142
B = 142/2
B = 71

A = B + 2
A = 71 + 2
A = 73 <===
