The answer should be 21 because the other answers do not make sense. Additionally, if you multiply 21 by 2 since 21 shots were made and each shot was worth 2 points, you would get a total of 42 points.
Answer:
21 two point basket.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that During a basketball game, the East Middle School Tigers scored 42 points from two-point baskets. It means
Total score = 42 points
Score for each basket = 2 point
Let total number of two-point baskets be x. So,
Total score = 2x points.
[tex]2x=42[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2.
[tex]\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{42}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=21[/tex]
Hence, they make 21 two point basket.
