Problem 458

 

The function H described by H(x) = 2.75x + 71.48 can be used to predicate the height, in centimeters, of a women whose humerus (the bone from the elbow to the shoulder) is x can long.

Predict the height of  a woman whose humerus is 35 cm long.

The predicate height of a woman whose humerus is 35 cm long is ___ cm.

 

Solution:-

 

H(x)=2.75x+71.48

x = height in cm

Put x=35 cm in this equation

H(x)=2.75*35+71.48

=96.25+71.48

=167.73

So the predicted height of a woman is 167.73 cm
