so im going to include this work i have to do and i dont really understand the question and was wondering if someone could break it down into simpler terms and maybe even help me set up an equation Body Mass Index (BMI) varies directly with a person's weight in pounds and inversely with the square of their height in inches. Captain America is listed as six foot two inches with a weight of 200 pounds. He has a BMI of 27. Determine the BMI of the Hulk if he is is seven feet nine inches tall and weights 1225 pounds. Show all work. Then choose five other characters from the Marvel Movies, super heros, (or similar universe like DC with Batman, Superman, etc.) and calculate their BMI based off the Captain America constant 'k'.
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
