Question 256155
 I don't understand how to get 2 formulas. My HW say to write a system of two inequalities that describe the situation and I am completely confused! Here is the question: 
In basketball you score 2 points for a field goal and 1 point for a free throw. Suppose that you have scored at least 3 points in every game this season, and have a high season score of 15 points in one game. How many field goals and free throws could you have made in any one game? 
<pre>
Let x = the number of field goals in a game
Let y = the number of free throws

Then the number of points = 2x + 1y

You have one inequality correct

{{{2x+1y >=3}}}

The other one is 

{{{2x+1y<=15}}}
