An empirical formula for the surface area of a child’s body is

A = 0.0177h0.72w0.42,

where h is the child’s height in inches and w is the child’s weight in pounds (see [7]). If a child is 40 inches tall and weighs 50 pounds, which will cause a larger increase in surface area, an increase of 1 inch in height or 1 pound in weight?
