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.

Which exponential function grows at a faster rate than the quadratic function for zero is less than X is less than three
Ann [662]

Answer:

43.35 years

why?

From the above question, we are to find Time t for compound interest

The formula is given as :

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

A = $2500

P = Principal = $200

R = 6%

n = Compounding frequency = 1

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 6/100

r = 0.06 per year,

Then, solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06/1)] )

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06)] )

t = 43.346 years

Truck tire life is normally distributed with a mean of 60,000 miles and a standard deviation of 4,000 miles. what is the probabi
olasank [31]
To solve for the P(54,000≤x≤66000) we proceed as follows:
z-score=(x-μ)/σ
μ-60000
σ-4000
thus:
when x=66,000
z-score=(66000-60000)/4000=1.5
P(z≤1.5)=0.9332
when x=54000
z=(54000-60000)/4000
z=-1.5
P(z≤-1.5)=0.0668
thus
 P(54,000≤x≤66000) 
=P(z≤1.5)-P(z≤-1.5)
=0.9332-0.0668
=0.8664

Answer: 0.8664

What is the measure, in degrees, of an angle that represents 50/350 of a circle?
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

\mathrm{A.\: 50^{\circ} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, we can set up the following proportion:

\frac{50}{360}=\frac{x}{360},\\360x=50\cdot 360,\\x=\boxed{50}
