(76) (in square meters) using the formula x = √  called BSA, where H is height in
3125
inches and W is weight is pounds. Find the BSA of a person who is √ 518 4 inches tall
and weighs √ 32 ,40 0 pounds. Round to the nearest whole number.
16. The brightness of a photograph is represented by the expression 12x2 - 2x - 4.

17. ErrorAnalysis Students were asked to find the product of √ 75 · √ 2. Which student is
(76) correct? Explain the error.
*18. Multi-Step A tsunami is a big ocean wave that can be caused by underwater
(76) volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, or hurricanes. The equation S = √ g · d models
the speed of a tsunami, where g is the acceleration due to gravity, which is
9.8 meters/second2, and where d is the depth of the ocean in meters.
