Determine linear equation to provide maximum healthy weight


Assume maximum healthy weight for the person who is 5 feet 4 inches tall is 150 pounds, and maximum healthy weight for someone 6 feet 2 inches tall is 200 pounds. Relationship between weight and height here is linear.

(a) Determine the linear equation which provides maximum healthy weight y for person whose height is x inches over 4 feet 4 inches. x = 0 corresponds to 4 feet 4 inches and x = 8 to 5 feet,etc.

(b) Determine maximum healthy weight for the person whose height is 5 feet?

(c) How tall is the person who is at the maximum healthy weight of 210 pounds?
