Chapter 2, Problem 2.1.309

(choose chapter or problem)

A womans height, h, is related to the length of her femur, f (the bone from the knee to the hip socket), by the formula f 0.432h 10.44. Both h and f are measured in inches. A partial skeleton is found of a woman in which the femur is 16 inches long. Police find the skeleton in an area where a woman slightly over 5 feet tall has been missing for over a year. Can the partial skeleton be that of the missing woman? Explain.
