Question 1017495: Please help me with this problem. The answer I came up with was 36.7mm A person's systolic blood pressure, which is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), depends on a person's age, in years.
The equation:
P=0.007y^2−0.03y+122
gives a person's blood pressure, P, at age y years
A.) Find the systolic pressure, to the nearest tenth of a millimeter, for a person of age 40 years.
