Please help me 25 points When Sarah was 6 months old, she was 21 in. tall and her head had a diameter of 4.5 in. Now, at 20
years old, she is 6 ft. 1 in. tall and her head has a diameter of 7.65 in. If Sarah is typical, should a
person at 20 years of age be considered "similar" to herself at 6 months of age? For all parts of the
problem write an equation and solve, showing ALL the work.
a.
Find the ratio of height-to-head diameter for Sarah at 6 months old. If the ratio were the
same when she was 20 years old, what diameter would her head have?
b. Find the ratio of height-to-head diameter for Sarah at 20 years old. If the ratio were the
same when she was 6 months old, how tall wc d she be at 6 months?

c.
How close are the two ratios you found in Part (a) and Part (b)?
d. If Sarah were taller or shorter either at 6 months of age or 20 years of age, would this make
her more or less "similar" at those two ages? Explain.
