Math Problem Statement
Human weight. A good approximation of the normal weight of a person 60 inches or
taller but not taller than 80 inches is given by w(x) = 5.5x - 220, where x is height in inches and w(x)
is weight in pounds.
(A) Describe how the graph of function w can be obtained from the graph of one of the basic
functions.
(B) Sketch a graph of function w using part (A) as an aid.
