Question

the function y=3.28x converts length from x meters to y feet Im really stuck im not real sure what to do

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: So this one can be a little confusing, but I think I can help. You see if 'y'= number of feet and 'x'= number of meters then y=3.28x is a way for you to figure out how many feet are constant to every meter.

Look at it more like, Number of Feet= 3.28 times the number of meters.

If you want to figure out many feet are constant to let's say...2 meters, then you would replace the 'x' variable with 2 and multiply it by 3.28.

It would look something like this:

y=3.28(2)

y= 6.56

Thus, every 1 feet there are 6.56 meters, or 6.56 meters equals 1 foot.

Hope this helps a little, tell me if you need anymore help with this!
