Joe made 9 baskets, which is 2 baskets more than Andrew. Let's represent the number of baskets Andrew made as b.
According to the information given, the equation that can be used to determine the number of baskets Andrew made is:
Joe's number of baskets = Andrew's number of baskets + 2
9 = b + 2
We can solve this equation to find the value of b, which represents the number of baskets Andrew made:
Subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
9 - 2 = b
7 = b
Therefore, Andrew made 7 baskets.
