Can anyone figure out this math?
...we all know this is parody, right? Right.
Anyway, the equation is odd. The text clearly says "divided by misogyny and multiplied by racism", but the equation shows the opposite, multiplying it by M/R rather than R/M. It could be that they left out a divided by symbol just before the parenthesis, which both explains why the parenthesis is there and fits with the text. There are other ambiguities left in the text, like for example if the square root applies to prejudice, or prejudice + systematic oppression, or what, but I'm going to go by the equation and assume there are no missing parentheses, for simplicity.
so we have B=sqrt(P)+SO/(M/R), or equivalently B=sqrt(P)+R*SO/M.
This has the interesting implication that bullying, the square root of prejudice, and racism times oppression over misogyny must all have the same units (otherwise, it'd make no sense to add them!).
But as we all know, racism is prejudice + power, which means prejudice and racism both have power units (
watts)
The square root of a watt has units of L*M^(1/2)*T^(-3/2), where L is length, M is mass and T is time. Bullying has these same units, as does R*SO/M, but as we already established R has units of power, so the units of SO/M must be such that something with units of power times it gives units of square root of power. Which is to say, it has units of power to the minus one-half, or more conveniently, M/SO has units of square root of power.
Got to say, I would not have expected that from the dimensional analysis.
