Answer:

Scored 21 points

Step-by-step explanation:

John = x

Luke = l

Paul = p

x - 3 = l

2p = l

p + l + x = 39

Since Luke's score is twice of Paul's...

p + 2p + x = 39

Since John's score is 3 more than Luke..

p + 2p + p + 3 = 39

4p + 3 = 39

4p = 36

p = 9

2p = l

2(9) = 18

l = 18

18 + 3 = 21

21 + 18 = 39
