__**Problem 4.1 : If you know a person's height do you know anything about his/her height?**__ I made a coordinate graph out of my class's armspan vs. height data. 6E's Arm Span Vs. Height Data

If you know a person's armspan you have an idea about his height. Based on the data I collected, most students are very close to having the same armspan length and height. Nobody in //our// class had the exact same armspan length and height though. Basically, you can make an estimate on how tall someone is by knowing by knowing their armspan length.

I drew a lone through where the armspan and height are the same.
 * __Problem 4.1 Follow Up: Draw a line through the graph where the measures fo armspan and height are the same.__**

1. No students in the class fell on the line where he armspan and height are the same. Something that is true about students who fall in this line is that they are perfect. Which means that their armspan is exactly the same as his/her height.

2. Something that is true about anyone below the line, which is most of our class, is that their armspan is greater than his/her height. Therefore, these people are monkeys.

3. Anyone who falls above the line, which is three people in our class, has a height larger than his/her armspan. Therefore these people are short armed weird people.
