The team lost n games.

The team won 8 more games than it lost, so it won n + 8.

The total number of games the team played was n + n + 8, or 2n + 8.

The team played a total of 24 games, so

2n + 8 = 24

We now solve for n.

2n + 8 = 24

2n = 16

n = 8 (lost games)

n + 8 = 8 + 8 = 16 (won games)

Answer: The team won 16 games and lost 8 games.

Trava [24]

*see attachment showing the box plot

Answer:

8 schools

Step-by-step explanation:

In a typical box plot, data set are usually represented and denoted by quartiles in almost equal proportion. That is, 25% of the data set falls between the min and the Q1 value. From Q1 to median value, we have about 25%. From median to Q3, we have 25%, and from Q3 to the max, we have about 25%.

In the box plot given, we have:

Schools that have participated for at least 3 - 7 years fall within Q1 (3) and Q3 (7). Therefore, we have about 50% of the total number of schools that have spent 3 to 7 years.

No of schools that have spent at least 3 - 7 years = \frac{50}{100}*16 = 8 schools
