The school store opened on the first day of school with 35 notebooks and 15 pencils. Within 2 days it sold all of those items. On the first day, twice as many notebooks were sold as pencils. On the second day, for every 5 notebooks sold, 2 pencils were sold. How many notebooks and how many pencils were sold on each day
