4. Another of Dr Trotter's equations predicts height (H) from a known tibia length (7) (this is a second formula). H = 2.52T + 78.62 (H&T are measured in cm).

a. The length of the tibia from one of our missing hikers found in Arizona (CW#9) is 41.6cm. Use Dr
Trotter's 2nd formula to predict the person's height. Is your answer a reasonable height for a
person?

b. Use your predicted height from 4a and your formula from 3b to predict the length of the femur of
a person with the 41.6cm tibia. Which femur length from our missing hikers found in Arizona
(CW#9) 41.5, 41.4 or 50.8 is closest to your prediction?

c. Show your work and use the 2nd equation (H = 2.52T + 78.62) to find the tibia's length (T).

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

, and for

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
