The answer is right because the support at B is showing resistance in x and why direction.
If you resolve the normal at B into Nsin45 and Ncos45 then 2t horizontal force is taken by Nsin45 component and horizontal at A will become zero.

I think the correct answer is 2t because 2t load is applied on the object at the right direction so balancing load will be applied at A in the left direction.

How is it possible? A should resist some of the horizontal load. It should be 1t.

Yes, horizontal reaction is zero, you can check it by taking moment at B.

It should be 2t.

Vertical reaction : 3t.
Here, it is asked about the horizontal reaction : 0.
