Answer:
both equations reduce to y = -1/3x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, subtract the term not containing y and divide by the coefficient of y.
1. 6y = -2x -12 . . . . 12 was subtracted from both sides
y = -1/3x -2 . . . . . . the equation was divided by 6
__
2. 3y = -x -6 . . . . . . x was subtracted from both sides
y = -1/3x -2 . . . . . the equation was divided by 3
8.5x + 55 = 123
You would use the formula: mx + b = y
The slope is the amount of money each day(mx),and the y-intercept would be the fee(b) and the total cost would be y.
Answer:
You are selecting marbles with replacement. The marble selections (trials) are independent and the marble selection follows the binomial distribution.
The probability of selecting a red marble the first time is 1313.
(This is because 4 out of 12 marbles are red and412412 reduces to 1313.
The probability of selecting a red marble the second time is 1313.
The marble selections are independent and you can multiply the two probabilities to get the following:
probability of getting 2 reds = (13)2(13)2
=19=19.
So the probability of getting two reds is 1919.

The equation given for BSA doesn't look correct, perhaps due to formatting issues involving a simple copy and paste without any proofreading afterwards. Doing a quick google search gives the Mosteller formula for BSA which is:
BSA = sqrt(W*H/3600)
This formula is quite likely the original target of the copy and paste since it has all of the correct values and it's likely that the square root symbol wasn't properly pasted, nor the horizontal bar indicating division. So I'll use the Mosteller formula in solving this problem:
First, solve for W, then substitute the known values and calculate:
BSA = sqrt(W*H/3600)
BSA^2 = W*H/3600
3600*BSA^2 = W*H
3600*BSA^2/H = W
3600*1.96^2/185 = W
3600*3.8416/185 = W
74.755 = W
So the weight of the adult is 75 kilograms.
If the incorrectly copied equation of Bâ˘Sâ˘A=Hâ‹…W3600 were to be used and if the missing operator between the W and the 3600 were a divide symbol, the calculated value would be 38 kg, which is rather light for someone 185 cm tall since the low end of healthy is 65 kg. And if the missing operator between the W and 3600 was a multiply, then the calculated weight would be 3 micrograms which is way too small for a human being, no matter how starved. However, the value calculated using the Mosteller formula would represent a BMI of 22 which is about average for a normal healthy adult.</span>
