Answer:

Whitney made 6 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of baskets made by Whitney be x.

The 15 baskets made by

Chiyann is equal to 2 times plus 3 what Whitney made

Mathematically what she made would be 2x + 3

To get x, we equate this equation to 15

2x + 3 = 15

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6 baskets
