The body mass index, I, can be used to determine an individuals risk of heart disease. An index less then 25 indicates a low risk. The body mass index is given by the formula: I= 700w/H^2 where w=weight and H=height in inches. Francis weighs 173 pounds and stands 74 inches tall. What is his BMI? Find an inequality describing all weights W that Francis can have and be in low-risk category.
