A basketball team scored 78 points in a game. The players made 6 baskets worth 1 point each and 27 baskets worth 2 points each. The rest of the baskets made were worth 3 points each. Which equation can be used to find b, the number of baskets the players made that were worth 3 points each?​

Respuesta :

Answer: They made 6 three point shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Make your equation

(((6x1)+(27x2)+(3x)=78

Simplify

(6+54+3x=78)

60+3x=78

Subtract from both sides

3x=18

Divide from both sides

x=6

The basketball team scored 6 shots worth 3 points.
