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? – 0.03y + 121 %3D | 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 45 years. 133.820 B.) If a person's systolic pressure is 131 mm Hg, what is their age (rounded to the nearest whole year)?
