6+3=9 touchdown, fieldgoal

3+3+3=9 3 fieldgoals
6+1+2=9 touchdown + convert , safety

A touchdown is worth 6 points, a field goal is worth 3 points, and a safety is worth 2 points. True or False

To find out how many ways a team can score 9 points in high school football, we need to consider the different combinations of touchdowns, field goals, safeties, and conversions that can add up to 9 points.

Let's break down the possibilities:

1. Touchdown (6 points) + Field Goal (3 points) = 9 points
2. Touchdown (6 points) + 1-Point Conversion (1 point) + 1-Point Conversion (1 point) = 9 points
3. Field Goal (3 points) + Field Goal (3 points) + Field Goal (3 points) = 9 points
4. Field Goal (3 points) + Safety (2 points) + Safety (2 points) + 2-Point Conversion (2 points) = 9 points
5. Safety (2 points) + Safety (2 points) + Safety (2 points) + Safety (2 points) + 1-Point Conversion (1 point) = 9 points

So, there are 5 different ways that a team can score 9 points in high school football.

To find the number of ways a football team can score 9 points, we need to consider the possible combinations of touchdowns, field goals, safeties, and extra point conversions. Let's break it down:

1. Touchdown worth 6 points: Since a touchdown itself is worth 6 points, we have to find the remaining 3 points. The team can either kick a field goal (3 points) or opt for a 2-point conversion after the touchdown.

a) Field goal (3 points) + Extra point conversion (1 point) = 4 points
b) Touchdown (6 points) + 2-point conversion = 8 points

2. Field goal worth 3 points: Since there is no way to score exactly 6 points with field goals, we will only consider other combinations after a field goal.

a) Field goal (3 points) + Touchdown (6 points) = 9 points

3. Safety worth 2 points: Since a safety alone is worth 2 points, we need to consider the remaining 7 points. Similar to the touchdown scenario, the team can either choose a combination of field goals or touchdowns with conversions.

a) Safety (2 points) + Field goal (3 points) + Extra point conversion (1 point) = 6 points
b) Safety (2 points) + Touchdown (6 points) + 1-point conversion = 9 points

Considering all the possible combinations, we have a total of 4 ways in which a team can score 9 points in high school football:

1) Touchdown (6 points) + Field goal (3 points)
2) Touchdown (6 points) + 2-point conversion
3) Field goal (3 points) + Touchdown (6 points)
4) Safety (2 points) + Touchdown (6 points) + 1-point conversion

So, the team can score 9 points in 4 different ways.
