Answer to Question 1

A, B, E
Feedback:
Obesity is associated with a wide variety of comorbidities including diabetes, hyperlipidemia, fatty liver disease, obstructive sleep apnea, GERD, vertebral disk disease, osteoarthritis, and increased risk of certain cancers.

Answer to Question 2

1376 calories
Rationale: Weight in kilograms = 245 pounds divided by 2.2 kilograms per pound = 111.364 kilograms. Height is 73 inches x 25 centimeters per inch = 160.6 centimeters.
66.5 + (13.75 x 111.364) + (5 x 160.6 cm)  (6.78 x 45 years old) = 1375.66.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
