Jaraan's final adult height will be 6 ft 1 in.

Solución

Jaraan’s height at 15 is 5 ft 10 in, which is equivalent to 70 inches. Since this represents 96.1% of his final adult height, we set up the equation:   70 = 0.961 × (final height in inches) Solving for the final height gives:   final height = 70 / 0.961 ≈ 72.82 inches Rounding to the nearest inch, this is about 73 inches. Converting inches to feet and inches, we note that:   73 inches = 6 ft (72 inches) + 1 inch Thus, Jaraan's final adult height is approximately 6 ft 1 in.

To find Jaraan's final adult height, we can set up the following equation based on the information given. If \( H \) represents his final adult height in inches, then we know that at age 15, he is 96.1% of that height: \[ \frac{96.1}{100} \times H = 5 \text{ ft } 10 \text{ in} \] First, convert his height to inches: 5 feet = 60 inches, so 5 ft 10 in = 60 in + 10 in = 70 inches. Now we can plug that into the equation: \[ 0.961 \times H = 70 \] Now, solve for \( H \): \[ H = \frac{70}{0.961} \approx 72.9 \text{ inches} \] Finally, convert 72.9 inches back to feet and inches: 72 inches is 6 feet, and the remaining 0.9 inches is about 11 inches (since 0.9 inches is quite close to an inch). So, rounding to the nearest whole number, Jaraan's final adult height will be approximately: Jaraan's final height will be \( 6 \text{ ft } 1 \text{ in} \).
