Answer:

The Answer is: Josh hit 47 balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j = Josh number of hits and c = Caiden number of hits:

j = c/2 + 9

Total:

j + c = 123.

Substitute:

(c/2 + 9) + c = 123

c/2 + c = 123 - 9

c/2 + c = 114

1/2c + 2/2c = 114

3/2c = 144

c = 144 (2/3) = 76, Number of hits for Caiden

Solve for j:

j = 76/2 + 9

j = 38 + 9 = 47, number of hits for Josh

Proof:

j + c = 123

47 + 76 = 123

123 = 123

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)

Angelo cuts a triangle from a sheet of paper as shown. what is the measure of the triangle?
NikAS [45]
Http://prntscr.com/anjh06

The image I saw was a paper with 90° edges. the 90° was cut into 2, 75° and x.

x = 90° - 75° = 15°

Interior angles of a triangle should equal 180°. The other corner of the paper is part of the triangle. It has a measure of 90°

The two angles are 15° and 90°. To find the remaining unknown angle, we deduct the two angles from 180°

3rd angle = 180° - 15° - 90°
3rd angle = 180° - 105°
3rd angle = 75°

Mason says that (12x + 4) - (-3x + 5) and 15x - 1 are equivalent. Is he correct? Explain
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

12x minus -3x is the same as adding two positives. That gives us 15x. 4 - 5 is -1. Putting the two simplified parts of the expression together, we get 15x - 1. Mason is correct.
