E. Practical Applications Allied Health Body surface area (BSA) is often used to calculate dosages of drugs for patients undergoing chemotherapy or those with severe burns. Body surface area can be estimated from the patient’s height and weight. BSA= weight in kg × height in cm 3600 The BSA will be in square meters. (a) Calculate the BSA for a man who weighs 95 kg and is 180 cm tall. (b) A chemotherapy drug is given at a dose of 20 mg/m 2 . Calculate the proper dosage for the man in part (a).

(a) Calculate the BSA for a man who weighs 95 kg and is 180 cm tall.
(b) A chemotherapy drug is given at a dose of 20 mg/m2. Calculate the proper dosage for the man in part (a).
What is the domain, range, increasing intervals (theres 3), decreasing intervals, roots, y-intercepts, end behavior (approaches four times), leading coffiencent status (is it negative, positivie?) the degress status (zero, undifined etc ), the absolute max, is there a absolute minimum, relative minimum, relative maximum, the root is that has a multiplicity of 2, the multiplicity of 3.
What is the vertex, axis of symmerty, all of the solutions, all of the end behaviors, the increasing interval, the decreasing interval, describe all of the transformations that have occurred EXAMPLE Vertical shrink/compression (wider). or Vertical translation down, the domain and range of this graph EXAMPLE Domain: x ≤ -1 Range: y ≥ -4.
use a graphing utility to sketch the graph of the function and then use the graph to help identify or approximate the domain and range of the function. f(x)= x*sqrt(9-(x^2))
