The polynomial 0.041h-0.018a-2.69 can be used to estimate the lung capacity, in liters, of a female with height h, in centimeters, and age a, in years. Find the lung capacity of a 30 year old woman who is 200 centimeters tall.
.
Given:
h = 200 cm
a = 30 years
plug into:
0.041h-0.018a-2.69
0.041(200)-0.018(30)-2.69
8.2-0.018(30)-2.69
8.2-0.54-2.69
7.66-2.69
4.97 liters
