Joe and Andrew shot baskets in a school fair. Joe made 9 baskets, which is 2 baskets more than Andrew. Supply the correct numbers to complete the equation that can be used to determine the number of baskets, b , that Andrew made.(1 point)
b + =
h + 17 = 26
h = 26 - 17
h = 9
b - 1 = 6
b = 6 + 1
b = 7 balloons
h + 21 1/5 = 30
h = 30 - 21 1/5
h = 8 4/5 hours
b + 2 = 9
