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.

Your friends ate at a restaurant and left a $2.40 tip. They left a 15% tip. What was the cost of their bill before the tip?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

16$ is the bill

Step-by-step explanation:

so 2.40 is 15% of the bill, what i'd do is first divide 2.40(15%) by 3 to get 5% which can make this much easier, 2.40÷3=0.80. this means that 1.60 is 10% since 0.80 is 5%. so now we do 1.60×10=16$

The mean and standard deviation when presenting results?
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Standard deviation is a number used to tell how measurements for a group are spread out from the average (mean), or expected value. A low standard deviation means that most of the numbers are close to the average. A high standard deviation means that the numbers are more spread out.
