I think there is a little error in your question. I guess You mean 60 vaccinations instead of 606060. I solved using 60 vaccinations.

Answer:Dr. Potter gave 32 polio vaccines and 28 measles vaccinations that year.

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Let number of polio vaccines be x

and number of measles vaccine be y

such that

total does of 60 vaccinations be expressed as

x+y = 60---- equation 1

And number of doses for both  vaccine to total 184 doses taken be expressed as

4x + 2y= 184 ---- equation 2

Step 2--- solving

x+y = 60---- equation 1

4x + 2y= 184 ---- equation 2

Making x the subject of formula in equation 1 and substituting it in equation 2

x= 60-y

4(60-y) +2y- 184

240-4y+2y=184

240-184= 4y-3y

56= 2y

y= 58/2 = 28

To get x , put the value of y=28 in equation 1 and solve

x+y=60

x=60-28

x=32

Therefore Dr. Potter gave 32 polio vaccines and 28 measles vaccinations that year.

What can you predict regarding the probability of the coin landing heads up?
sattari [20]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the frequency will change for each trial so a is wrong

b yea the probability should increase for either head or tail as the experiment progresses

c it will be impossible to get the frequency of head to equal the frequency of tails

d this is a 49/51  chance depending on what side did it flip on so while the frequency could increase the frequency could also decrease

the answer is B

I'm from your other question asking for help lmæo. and besides who flips that many coins
