Answer:

free throws = 6

2 points shots = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we will have 2 incognitas.

x = number of free throws

y = number of shots of 2 points

x(1) + y(2) = 12

he says he made twice as many free throws as 2 points

x = 2y

2y(1) + y(2) = 12

2y + 2y = 12

4y = 12

y = 12/4

y = 3

x = 2y

x = 2*3

x = 6

free throws = 6

2 points shots = 3
