Chapter 8.1, Problem 44E
SURFACE AREA OF A HUMAN BODY An empirical formula by E. F. Dubois relates the surface area S of a human body (in square meters) to its weight W (in kilograms) and its height H (in centimeters). The formula, given by
S = 0.007184W0.425H0.725
is used by physiologists in metabolism studies.
- a. Find the domain of the function S.
- b. What is the surface area of a human body that weighs 70 kg and has a height of 178 cm?
