Phoebe and Monica are each 21-year-old females, height 5 feet 2 inches tall (1.58 m), weight 128 pounds (58.2 kg). Monica’s physical activity value is 1.12, Phoebe’s is 1.27.

Calculations Worksheet (Please show all work) EER prediction equations Table 9.1 Life stage EER prediction equation* Boys 9-18 years Girls 9-18 years Men > 19 years Women > 19 years EER=88.5- (61.9 X Age in yrs) + PA [(26.7 X Weight in kg) + (903 X Height in m)] + 25 EER135.3-(30.8 X Age in yrs) + PA [(10.0 X Weight in kg) + (934 x Height in m)] + 25 EER=662- (9.53 X Age in yrs) + PA [(15.91 X Weight in kg) + (539.6 x Height in m)] EER = 354 (6.91 X Age in yrs) + PA [(9.36 X Weight in kg) + (726 X Height in m)] For example, if you are an active 19-year-old male who weighs 72.7 kg and is 1.75 m tall, EER=662 - (9.53 X 19 yrs) + 1.25 [(15.91 x 72.7 kg) + (539.6 X 1.75 m)] = 3107 Cal/day *These equations are appropriate for determining EER in normal-weight individuals. Equations that predict the amount of energy needed for weight maintenance in overweight and obese individuals are also available (see Appendix A). a.Using the table above, calculate the ER for both Monica and Phoebe. b. What is the difference in the estimated energy requirement (EER) between Monica and Phoebe?
