Anthropologists can estimate the height of a woman by measuring the length of her radius bone (from the wrist to the elbow). The length of the radius bone b is given by b=0.26h-18.85 where h is the height (in centimeters) of the woman. How do you solve the equation?

    B = 0.26 h - 18.85,

    where b is the length of the radius bone and h is the height.

    To find the equation for height of a woman, you can solve the equation for h.

    0.26 h = b + 18.85

    h = (b + 18.85) / 0.26

    h = (100 b + 1,885) / 26

    Then you can plug in the length of the radius bone in this equation.
