Question 256155
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


Yes, *[tex \LARGE 2x\ +\ y\ \geq\ 3] describes the low end, presuming that you have defined *[tex \Large x] to mean the number of field goals and *[tex \Large y] to mean the number of free throws.  But your best game was 15, so the values of *[tex \Large x] and *[tex \Large y] must also satisfy *[tex \LARGE 2x\ +\ y\ \leq\ 15]


In addition, you must also make the restriction that your solution set consists of *[tex \LARGE \left(x,y\right)\,|\,x\,\in\,Q,\ y\,\in\,Q].  After all, *[tex \Large x\ =\ 1.3475] wouldn't make much sense as a number of basketball field goals, now would it?
