here are 48 inches in 4 feet, which is represented by the equation 4y=48x . Determine the number of inches per foot.
To determine the number of inches per foot, we can rearrange the equation 4y = 48x to solve for y (inches per foot).
Dividing both sides by 4, we get:
y = 12x
This equation tells us that there are 12 inches in 1 foot. Therefore, there are 12 inches per foot.
