X - Ollie's age

8 is subtracted from Ollie's age = x-8
the result is the same as
subtracting 16 from 3 times his age = 3x-16

$x-8=3x-16 \\
x-3x=-16+8 \\
-2x=-8 \\
x=4$

Ollie is 4 years old.

Answer:

a) sample size is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

$\sigma=4$ minutes

Margin of error, E is 75 seconds E=75/60= 1.25 minutes.

The level of significance $\alpha= 0.05$ for 95% level of significance

For 95% confidence interval $z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=1.96$ from standard deviation table

Sample size required, n

$n=\left (\frac{z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot \sigma}{E} \right )^{2}=\left (\frac{1.96\cdot4}{75/60} \right )^{2}=39.337984$

Rounding off, n=40

Sample size =40

Convert each function to standard form<br>31) y=(x + 2)2 + 1

vlada-n [284]

The standard form of a parabola is

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

So, if you expand the square, you get

$y=(x+2)^2+1 = x^2+4x+4+1 = x^2+4x+5$

which is the standard form
