Inequalities<br />

Read the following instructions in order to complete this assignment,<br />

and review theexampleow to complete the math required for this<br />

assignment:<br />

Read the article about Body Mass Index (BMI) on page 151<br />

of Elementary and Intermediate Algebra. Use the formula given using<br />

pounds and inches for finding the BMI at the end of the first<br />

paragraph in order to find the four intervals the article mentions:<br />

o<br />

17 < BMI < 22 might have a longer life span than average<br />

o<br />

23 < BMI < 25 probably not overweight<br />

o<br />

25 < BMI < 29.9 probably overweight<br />

o<br />

BMI > 30 obese<br />

You will use your height to plug into the formula to solve for W, the<br />

weight range that will go with each category. You may prefer to solve


the formula for the variable W before plugging in values, which is<br />

fine.<br />

shown in the Instructor Guidance and be concise in your reasoning. In<br />

the body of your essay, please make sure to include:<br />

Your solution to the above problem, making sure to<br />

include all mathematical work<br />

A discussion on the computed weight ranges and some<br />

reasons why they could be misleading<br />

An evaluation of the regions outside of the “probably not<br />

overweight” range using both set notation and interval notation.<br />

Include a simple graph of the regions. (See Instructor Guidance<br />

example for some ideas of how to do this.)<br />

The incorporation of the following five math vocabulary<br />

words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in<br />

your writing (Do not write definitions for the words; but integrate<br />

them into your discussion.):<br />
