According to the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, the BMR can be calculated as follows: BMR = 10 * weight (kg) + 6.25 * height (cm) - 5 * age (years) + 5 However, we don't have the height and age of the man, so we cannot calculate the exact BMR. But the question states Show more…

Basal metabolic rate $(B M R)$ is the number of calories per day a person needs to maintain life. A person's basal metabolic rate $B(w)$ in calories per day can be estimated with the function $B(w)=70 w^{1 / 4},$ where $w$ is the person's weight in kilograms. Use this information to answer Exercises. Estimate the BMR for a person who weighs 60 kilograms. Round to the nearest calorie. (Note: 60 kilograms is approximately 132 pounds.)
