Answer: His usual average = 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = usual average at the basketball game tonight.

As per given,

[tex]\dfrac{x}{2}+10=24[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides , we get

[tex]\dfrac{x}{2}+10-10=24-10\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{x}{2}=14\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=14\times2=28[/tex]

Hence, his usual average = 28.
