To determine the number of centimeters in 1 inch, we can set x = 1 in the equation 6y = 15.24x and solve for y:
6y = 15.24(1)
6y = 15.24
y = 15.24 / 6
y = 2.54
Therefore, there are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch.
The proportional relationship 15.25 centimeters in 6 inches is represented by 6y = 15.24x Determine the number of centimeters in 1 inch.
