Travis scored points

Let's call the number of points scored in the first game A and the number of points scored in the second game B:

A = 18

since he scored 18 points in the first

B = A -3 = 18 - 3 = 15

B = 15

since he scored 3 fewer point in the second

The total number of point is

A + B = 18 + 15 = 33
