Maya weight management clinic had height, weight and BMI records for all its patients. It calculated the BMI as the approximate ratio of weight (in kg) to the square of the height (in m). A partially filled spreadsheet with records for seven randomly selected female patients is shown below. No two patients had the same height or weight. Heights (in cm) and weights (in kg) are integral
As per norms, the clinic classifies patients into four categories based on their BMI:
Underweight – BMI < 18.5
Normal – 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25
Overweight – 25 ≤ BMI < 30
Obese – 30 ≤ BMI
It is also known that:
Q1. What was Asma’s height (in cm)?
Q2. Kinjal was heavier and taller than how many people?
Q3. By how much did the highest BMI in the normal category exceed the lowest BMI in the normal category?
Q4. What maximum integral weight gain (in kg) would let Rubina be “normal”?
In a laboratory, unit samples of chemicals A, B, C, D, E and F are made by mixing ingredients L, M, N, O and P by weight as shown in the table below:
The cost of each ingredient (in Rs. per mg) is: L – 150; M – 50; N – 125; O – 100; P – 75
A unit sample of chemical ABC represents a new sample formed by mixing a unit sample each of chemicals A, B and C. Similarly, unit samples of chemicals BCD, CDE and DEF are made
