Please check.
If an animal is (H) feet high at the shoulder, then the number (N) of steps per second that the animal will take can be estimated by N(h)=1.6h^-1/2.
Estimate the stepping frequency of a dog that is 1.9 feet high.
This is word for word what the question asked and it confused me.
To estimate the stepping frequency of a dog that is 1.9 feet high at the shoulders, we can use the given formula: N(h) = 1.6 * √h.
1. First, convert the height of the dog to the same units used in the formula, which is in feet. Since the height is already given in feet, no conversion is needed.
2. Plug in the given value of 1.9 feet into the formula: N(1.9) = 1.6 * √1.9.
To solve this equation, you can use a calculator or a scientific calculator. Input the square root of 1.9, then multiply the result by 1.6.
Using a calculator, the estimated stepping frequency of the dog would be approximately 2.735 steps per second.
