- Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body composition, which can be used to assess if someone is underweight, healthy weight, overweight but not obese, or obese. It is calculated as a person’s weight (measured in Kilograms) divided by his/her height (measured in meters) squared. We recorded 5 students’ BMI values and the numbers of hours they exercised in the past week, as following: BMI 18.4 19.6 20.5 27.6 30.6 Hours of exercise 3.0 2.5 4.0 2.7 0.5 What is the value of r?arrow_forwardIn California, we need more rain to sustain the health of our natural environment, argriculture, and economic.

- An alternative to the body mass index (BMI) for estimating the health risks of obesity is A Body Shape Index (ABSI), given by the formula shown below, where w and h are the waist and height, respectively, in meters, and b is the BMI. The national Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute uses the BMI to determine whether a person is "overweight" (25 ≤ BMI <30) or "obese" (BMI ≥ 30). Complete parts (a) through (d). ABSI = W 2 1 32 bh a. Suppose a man is 1.83 m tall with a waist of 0.885 m and a BMI of 22.9. Find the ABSI for such a person. How does this compare with the average ABSI for a 52-year-old man of 0.0831? The ABSI for this person is 0.081, which is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) less than the average ABSI for a 52-year-old man. b. For the person described in part a, find the rate that the ABSI is going up with respect to his waist.
