Anthropologists can determine a person's height in life by using the person's skeletal remains as a clue. For example, the height (in centimeters) of a man with a humerus bone of length x cm can be obtained by multiplying 2.89 by x and adding 70.64 to the result. (a) Find a function h(x) that gives the height of a man whose humerus bone is x cm long. h(x) =
