Explanation:

Answer 2

2 two-point shots, 1 free throw

Explanation:

If each two-point shot is worth two points, then she could have scored two of them, which would make five points. She couldn't have scored any more two-point shots, because then the number would be over 5. However, after scoring 2 two-point shots, there is still one point left, so she must have scored 1 free throw to get that point.
