Answer:

Santana scored 12 2-point baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Santana converted 22 baskets in his last basketball game, totaling 54 points at the end of the game, and that in basketball the baskets are worth 2 and 3 points, to determine the number of baskets of each value that Santana converted, the following logic reasoning must be done:

If all the baskets were 2 points, the total of points made would have been 44 (22 x 2). Now, there are 10 more points, which are attributable to the 3-point baskets (that is, each extra point is a 3-point basket). Therefore, since 54 minus 44 equals 10, Santana made 10 3-point baskets and 12 2-point baskets.

This is verified through the following calculation:

(10 x 3) + (12 x 2) = X

30 + 24 = X

54 = X

I need to find the value of x
Zanzabum
Hello, 

We know that all the angles shown add up to 360 (think of a circle).

We also know that the angle of (6x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it. (the "top left" angle) = 6x - 1°

We also know that the angle of (7x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it. 
(the "bottom left" angle) = 7x -1°

Knowing the sum of all angles as well as the angle measures in terms of x, we can add all the angle measures and equal it to 360.

So, we get (7x - 1) + (7x - 1) + (6x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 360
Simplify and we get:
26x - 4 = 360
Add 4 to both sides to get 26x = 364 
Divide by 26 on both sides to get 14.

x = 14

Hope this helps!
