The function H described by H(x)=2.75+71.48 can be used to estimate the height, in centimeters, of a woman whose humerus is x cm long. Estimate the height of a woman whose humerus is 34.4 cm long.
:
Assume you mean: H(x) = 2.75x + 71.48
:
H(x) = 2.75x + 71.48
:
Substitute 34.4 for x
2.75(34.4) + 71.48
:
94.6 + 71.48 = 166.08 cm about 5' 5"
