predict a person’s IQ by using the formula S= 2pyI-9, where S is the number of nonsense syllables and I is the person’s IQ. If a person repeats consecutively 17 nonsense syllables, what is the estimated IQ of this person?
---------------------
S= 2pyI-9
---
17 = 2(pi)I-9
2(pi)I = 26
(pi)I = 13
I = 4.13
