The proportional relationship between inches and feet is displayed on the graph. Derive the equation of the line through the origin
A) y = 12x
B) y = 2x
C) y = 1/12x
D) y = 36x
The proportional relationship between inches and feet is such that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. This means that for every foot (y), there are 12 times as many inches (x).
So the equation for this relationship would be y = 12x.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A) y = 12x
