8. An experiment was set up to find a relationship between weight and blood pressure in normal children. Using hospital records for 5,000 normal children, it was found that the blood pressure was given approximately by P(x) = 17.5(1+ Inx), 10≤x≤100 where P(x) is measured in millimeters of mercury and x is weight measured in pounds. (Correct the answers to two decimal places.) a. Find the approximate change in blood pressure in normal children when the weight increases from 30 to 31 pounds. b.
