Answer:

Chase scored 38 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this we know that he made 8 more than half as many as Mateo. If we let x be the amount of points Mateo scored, we can write the following equation.

y = 1/2x + 8

Now we can plug in Mateo's total to get the final score for Chase.

y = 1/2(60) + 8

y = 30 + 8

y = 38
