Answer:


2x+3x+9

Explanation:

In first half,

Let number of 2-point shots=x

Points scored on free throws=9

Point scored in x number of 2-point shots=2x

In second half,

Number of 3-point shots=number of 2-point shots in first half=x

Point scored in x number of 3-point shots=3x

Therefore, the player scored total number of points in the game is given by


2x+3x+9

Hence, the expression which represents the total number of points scored by player in the game is given by


2x+3x+9
