00:01 Here our problem involves the variation that combines direct and inverse variation.

00:06 To solve it we can use the full step procedure for solving the variation problems.

00:13 So let us take this step first.

00:16 Write the equation of a variation.

00:18 The bmi varies.

00:21 This bmi varies directly with weight.

00:24 It varies directly with the weight and it varies inversely with the square of height.

00:31 Let w represents the weight in pounds.

00:35 This weight in pounds it is calculated and h represents the height.

00:41 It is the height.

00:43 It is represented in the inches.

00:46 Then the equation of variation that combines direct and inverse variation is bmi it is equal to k multiplied by weight divided by h square where k is a constant of the variation.

01:01 Then this was the first step in which we have written the formula.

01:06 Then the second step is use the given information to find the constant of variation k.

01:12 Now we will find the k which is the constant.

01:15 For the first person who weights 180 pounds, its weight that is w1 we consider it is 180 pounds and is 5 feet that means its height is 5 feet which is nothing but equal to the 60 inches.

01:35 It is 60 inches...
