The Estimated Energy Requirement $($EER$)$ is the average dietary intake needed to maintain healthy energy balance, which varies depending on different factors. The EER for a female $19$ years or older is calculated using the equation:

EER$=354-6\mathrm{.}91$Age$+PA(9\mathrm{.}36Wt+726Ht)$

where:

Age $=$ age $($ years $)$

$Wt=$ weight $(kg)$

$Ht=$ height $(m)$

$PA=$ Physical Activity Estimate $(see$ table$)$

When you are given an equation, such as the one for EER, the first thing you should calculate is the information that is in
