The surface area in square meters of the human body can be found using the expression √hm/3600 where h is the height in centimeters and m is the mass in kilograms. find the surface area of a 15-year-old boy with a height of 183 centimeters and a mass of 74 kilograms. (√ = square root)​

Respuesta :

The surface area is a function of height and mass of the body

The surface area of the 15-year-old boy is 1.92 cm square

The given parameter is:

[tex]A = \sqrt\frac{{hm}}{3600}[/tex]

When h = 183 cm ad m = 74 kg

The function becomes

[tex]A = \sqrt{\frac{180 \times 74}{3600}[/tex]

[tex]A = \sqrt{\frac{13320}{3600}[/tex]

[tex]A = \sqrt{3.7}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1.92[/tex]

Hence, the surface area of the 15-year-old boy is 1.92 cm square
