Question 202169: I need a small help please!!!!
The body mass index, I can be used to determine an individual�s risk for heart disease. An index less than 25 indicates a low risk. The body mass index is given by the formula, or model, I=700W/H2(small 2), where W= weight, in pounds, and H= height, in inches, in inches. Francis weights 198 pounds and stands 76 inches tall. What is his approximate body mass index? Find an inequality describing all weights W that Francis can have and be in the low-risk category.
Francis�s approximate body mass index is ?
(Round to the nearest whole number.)
{W/W < (approximate) ? lb}
(Round to the nearest whole number.)

I=700(198)/76*2
I=138,600/?
Thank you!

You have the first question modeled correctly, just simplify and round
For the second one, you are told a 'good BMI is <25'
So

So Francis can gain 8 pounds and still qualify as 'in the low risk range'.
