Answer:

Pedro got 1486 and Ricky got 1202 hits

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that, teammates Pedro and Ricky together got 2688 base hits last season.

This means [tex]p+r=2688[/tex], where p is the number of hits Pedro got and r number of hits Ricky got.

Also Pedro had 284 more hits than Ricky.

This gives us:

[tex]p=r+284[/tex]

We substitute this last equation into the first one to get:

[tex]r+284+r=2688[/tex]

2r=2404

Divide by 2 to get:

r=1202

Therefore p=1202+284=1486
