Question 42770: A forensics scientist uses the expression 72.6+ 2.5T to estimate the height in centimeters of a female with a tibia of length T centimeters. If a female skeleton has a tibia of length 32.4 cm, then what was the height of the person? Find the length of your tibia in centimeters, and use the expression from this exercise or previous exercise to estimate your height.

Though it appears to be a long and confusing problem, the math is really quite simple...all it is saying is that if you measure the tibia to be 32.4 cm, you can plug it into
72.6 + 2.5T
to get the overall height, so let's do that...
72.6 + 2.5(32.4) =
72.6 + 81 =
153.6 cm
Then measure your tibia and plug in the same way...
