Question

, that Andrew made.(1 point)

Answer 1

To determine the number of baskets, \( b \), that Andrew made, you can set up the equation based on the information given:

Joe made 9 baskets, which is 2 baskets more than Andrew. Therefore, you can express this relationship as:

\[ 9 = b + 2 \]

To solve for \( b \), you can rearrange the equation:

\[ b = 9 - 2 \]

So, the completed equation is:

\[ 9 = b + 2 \]

where \( b \) represents the number of baskets Andrew made.
