Computing Body Mass Index (BMI) Materials: Calculator Estimated Time: 10 minutes Group Size: 2 Body mass index is a statistical measures of an individual's weight in relation to the person's height. It is computed by BMI = 703 W h 2 were W is a person's weight in p o u n d s . h is the person's height in i n c h e s . The National Institutes of Health (NIH) categorizes body mass indices as shown in the table. Body Mass Index (BMI) Weight Status 18.5 ≤ BMI ≤ 24.9 Considered ideal 25.0 ≤ BMI ≤ 29.9 Considered overweight BMI ≥ 30.0 Considered obese For a fixed height, body mass index is a function of a person's weight only. For example, for a person 72 in. tall (6ft), solve the following inequality to determine the person's ideal weight range. 18.5 ≤ 703 W ( 72 ) 2 ≤ 24.9

A research study in the year 2009 found that there were 2760 coyotes
in a given region. The coyote population declined at a rate of 5.8%
each year.
How many fewer coyotes were there in 2024 than in 2015?
