(choose chapter or problem)

Anthropologists suggest that the relationship between the body weight and brain weight of primates can be modeled with a power function. Table 11.29 lists various body weights and the corresponding brain weights of different primates.18 (a) Using Table 11.29, find a power function that gives the brain weight, Q (in mg), as a function of the body weight, b (in gm). (b) The erythrocebus (Patas monkey) has a body weight of 7800 gm. Estimate its brain weight.
