Jason hit 11 homeruns.
Step-by-step explanation:
Homeruns hit by Nathan = 19
Let,
Homeruns hit by Nathan = x
Homerun hit by Jason = y
According to given statement;
x = 2y - 3 Eqn 1
We know that Nathan hit 19 homeruns, therefore, putting x=19 in Eqn 1
[tex]19=2y-3\\19+3=2y\\22=2y\\2y=22[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 2;
[tex]\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{22}{2}\\y=11[/tex]
Jason hit 11 homeruns.
