Chapter , Problem 64

(choose chapter or problem)

To make different people comparable in studies of cardiac output, researchers divide the measured cardiac output by the body surface area to find the cardiac index C: The body surface area B of a person with weight w and height h is approximated by the formula which gives B in square centimeters when w is measured in kilograms and h in centimeters. You are about to calculate the cardiac index of a person 180 cm tall, weighing 70 kg, with cardiac output of Which will have a greater effect on the calculation, a 1-kg error in measuring the weight or a 1-cm error in measuring the height?
