Find a model for the Body Mass Index (BMI) of a person, given that BMI varies directly as a person's weight in pounds and inversely as the square of the person's height in inches. If a 6 ft tall person weighing 148 lb has a BMI of 20.07, how much weight would a 5 ft, 11 in. tall person weighing 181 lb need to gain or lose to have a BMI of 24? Write your answer as a positive value for weight gain or a negative value for weight loss. Round your answer to one decimal place. Answer E Keypad
