Is 6xy plus 3x equals 4 a linear equation?

No. In the variable x, alone, it is linear. In the variable y, alone, it is linear. But taken together, in x and y, you have a term which contains xy - that is, a term in which the powers of the unknowns add to 2. So the equation is not linear.


Origin of Two's company threes a crowd?

I believe it most often refers to the fact that two people would rather be alone together than have a third person there preventing any intimacy or hindering private conversation. It's usually said by someone wanting the third person to leave the other two alone, but I don't know the historical origin. You can reference most English phrases in the Oxford History of the English Language. Many came from Shakespeare, who introduced many new words and phrases into the language, at least from the standpoint of having them written down first, but it would be hard to use very many new words in plays that the audience didn't already understand. (BTW, my favorite misunderstood one is, "cheese it, the copse", meaning 'the woods', not policemen!)


Can people use their sense of hearing alone to tell apart a penny nickel dime and quarter?

Yes. If people can find the differences in other people's voices, then you could indicate the difference in coins. If listened to closely, then you could tell.
