Question 2

Harold is a college sophomore and is trying to get in shape for spring break. He would like to lose the body weight he has gained during his freshman and sophomore years. In high school he played sports and his family prepared healthy meals, but his freshman and sophomore years have proven to be very different with late nights of school work and hanging out with friends playing poker and eating lots of take-out food, snacking on pizza, and drinking soda. Harold, who is 5' 10 tall, has gained 18 pounds and now weighs 180 pounds. Harold has never tried to lose weight before and decides to talk to a personal trainer at the gym to get help. During Harold's consultation the personal trainer assesses his BMI, determines his ideal body weight, and measures his body fat content using skin fold calipers. The personal trainer tells Harold his body composition is 26 fat. The personal trainer also measures Harold's waist and his measurement is 42. Calculate Harold's BMI.
 A) 18
  B) 22
  C) 26
  D) 30

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
