The function H described by H(x) = 2.75x = 71.48 can be used to predict the height, in centimeters, of a woman whose humerus (the bone from teh elbow to the shouldber) is x cm long.
Predict the height of a woman whose humerus is 33 cm long.
The predicted height of a woman whose humerus is 33 cm long is ? cm

I have 174.48 as the answer?

I mean 160.48

The function is$$ H(x) =2.75x$$Is this the right equation or is something missing?

anonymous · Answer

I have H(33)=2.75+71.48

pfenn1 · Answer

I was wondering.....that isn't what it showed above. so isn't  the general equation given by$$H(x) =2.75x+71.48$$?

anonymous · Answer

When I reentered the problem I got 162.23?

pfenn1 · Answer

Well if the equation is as I last wrote it then$$H(33) =2.75(33)+71.48=162.23$$I agree.
