document.write( "Question 1042397: Anthropologists approximate the height H (in centimeters) of a primate by measuring the length L (in centimeters) of the bone connecting the elbow to the shoulder. Each increase of 30 centimeters in bone length corresponds to an increase of 25 cm in height. Write a linear equation for height in terms of length if a length of 10 cm corresponds to a height of 85 cm.
