The relationship between inches and feet is graphed on a coordinate grid. The vertical axis is labeled
“inches” and the horizontal axis is labeled “feet.” What is the slope of the graph?
4 answers
change in inches/ change in feet = (12-0) /(1-0) = ?
compare it to y = mx, we know m is the slope
y inches = m x feet
now since 1 foot = 12 inches
y inches = m x (12 inches)
divide by "inches"
y = 12x
state your conclusion.
y inches = m x feet
now since 1 foot = 12 inches
y inches = m x (12 inches)
divide by "inches"
y = 12x
state your conclusion.
so is that the answer?
is 12 the answer?
