Question

(a) the researchers can estimate the height of the person from the length of the humerus. the humerus length (l) in centimeters is related to height (h) in centimeters by a linear equation. (h = 2.9l+78.1) about how tall would the male have been if the length of the humerus measured 39 cm? enter the values in the boxes. (h=square\text{ cm})

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute humerus length

Given $L = 39$, substitute into $H=2.9L + 78.1$.
$H=2.9\times39 + 78.1$

Step2: Calculate multiplication part

$2.9\times39=113.1$.
So $H = 113.1+78.1$

Step3: Calculate sum

$H=191.2$

Answer:

$191.2$
