Question 195748: the polynomial 0.41h-0.018a-2.69 can be used to estimate the lung compacity, in liters,of a female with height "h", in centimeters, and age "a", in years. find the lung compacity of a 50 year old woman who is 160 centimeters tall.

Since �h� represents an individual�s height, and �a� their age, and
Since the polynomial 0.41h � 0.018a � 2.69 is used to calculate lung capacity, then a person who�s 160 cm tall, and 50 years-old will have a lung capacity of:
0.41(160) � 0.018 (50) � 2.69
65.6 - .9 � 2.69 = 62.01
Therefore, the lung capacity, in liters, of this individual is 62.01.
