Solution for A student at a local community college has an internship at a nearby hospital with Dr. Dynamite. The doctor sometimes uses the patient's body surface area to calculate how much medicine he she should receive. The formula for the body surface area is the following where w=weight (in .lbs). h=height (in. cm), and BSA is measure square meters: BSA= √wh/3600 Part 1: If patient Z weights 240 pounds and has a height of 183 cm, what is his/ her BSA.

Pat 2: If patient Y weights 185 pounds and has a BSA of 2 √2m^2, what would be his/her height.
Part 3: Using the BSA formula, solve for w , the weight.

An annual marathon covers a route that has a distance of approximately 26 miles. winning times for this marathon are all over 2 hours. the following data are the minutes over 2 hours for the winning male runners over two periods of 20 years each. earlier period 14 12 15 22 13 10 19 13 9 14 20 18 16 20 23 12 18 17 6 13 recent period 7 11 7 14 8 9 11 14 8 7 9 8 7 9 9 9 9 8 10 8 (a) make a stem-and-leaf display for the minutes over 2 hours of the winning times for the earlier period. use two lines per stem. (use the tens digit as the stem and the ones digit as the leaf. enter none in any unused answer blanks. for more details, view how to split a stem.) minutes beyond 2 hours earlier period 0 1 2 (b) make a stem-and-leaf display for the minutes over 2 hours of the winning times for the recent period. use two lines per stem. (use the tens digit as the stem and the ones digit as the leaf. enter none in any unused answer blanks.) minutes beyond 2 hours recent period (c) compare the two distributions. how many times under 15 minutes are in each distribution
