Let's use a for number of days when he shot 50 shots and b for number of days when he shot 100 shots.
We have:
a + b = 20

We also know that he shot total of 1250 shots:
50a + 100 b = 1250

We have two equations. We can solve them for a and b.  Let's rearange first equation for a:
a= 20 - b
We insert this into second equation:
50 * (20 - b ) + 100b = 1250
1000 - 50b + 100b = 1250
50b = 250
b = 5
a = 20 - 5
a = 15

Mark shot 100 shots on 5 days.

35 degrees + 90 degrees + k
spayn [35]

Answer:

k would be 55

Step-by-step explanation:

35+90=125 and assuming that you're looking for a supplementary angle, the total must equal 180 so subtract 180-125  and you get k=55

Answer:

90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: State what is known

Notice that the 2 lines cut the square in half and create 4 congruant triangles.  We know a full circle is 360 degrees and the intersection is a perfect circle formed by 4 angles.  We can find the angle AEB by dividing 360 by 4 which gives you 90 degrees

Edward had 100 newspapers to deliver on his paper route. He had already delivered 25
kati45 [8]

Answer:

50 newspapers

Step-by-step explanation:

100 (total amount of newspapers) - 25 (amount Edward already sold) = 75 (amount of newspapers left)

75 (amount of newspapers left) ÷ 3 (Edward and his 2 friends) = 25 (equal amount each person delivered)

25 (amount Edward already sold) + 25 (amount Edward sold after his friends helped him) = 50 (amount of newspapers Edward sold in total)
