Did they give you a list of expressions to pick from?
OpenStudy (junhaoz):
In the first half of the game, use x as the constant number of 2 pointers, so the expression is 2x+9, because free throws are 1 point each. The second half, they would score 3x points, because they scored the same amount of 3 pointers and 2 pointers in the first half. The total of them would be 3x+2x+9, or simply 5x+9.
