To find the number of centimeters in 1 inch, we need to find the value of x when y=1 (since we are looking for the relationship between 1 inch and an unknown number of centimeters).
Plugging in y=1 into the equation 6y=15.24x, we get:
6(1) = 15.24x
6 = 15.24x
Dividing both sides by 15.24:
x ≈ 0.3937
So the number of centimeters in 1 inch is approximately 0.39 centimeters.
The proportional relationship 15.24 centimeters in 6 inches is represented by 6y=15.24x. Determine the number of centimeters in 1 inch.(1 point)
