Question

The number of calories K is needed each day by a moderately active women who weight w pounds, is h inches tall, and is a year old can be estimated by the formula given below. Formula k = 917+6(w+h-a)

Answer 1

K = 917 + 6(w + h - a)
k = 1925
w = 119
a = 25

1925 = 917 + 6(119 + h - 25) =
1925 = 917 + 6(h + 94)
1925 = 917 + 6h + 564
1925 = 1481 + 6h
1925 - 1481 = 6h
444 = 6h
444/6 = h
74 = h........she is 74 inches tall
