Concept explainers
Find the inverse of the model. Then estimate the height of a 60 kilogram person who has a body surface area of 1.6 square meters.
Height = 149.30 centimeter.
Given information:
The body surface area A (in square meters) of a person with a mass of 60 kilogram can be approximated by the model
Concept used:
In order to find the inverse of a function
Step 1: interchange x and y in the given function
Step 2: solve for y and that will give the required inverse function
Calculation:
The inverse of model
Thus the inverse of the given function
60kg Person who has a body surface area (A) of 1.6 square meters has height is-
So 60kg person who has a body surface area (A) of 1.6 square meters has height = 149.30 centimeter.
