When converting from inches to feet, the measurement in inches, m, of an object varies directly with its measurement in feet, f,

with the constant of variation being 12.
What is the equation relating these two quantities?

Step-by-step explanation:

wow, how complicated can one phrase this ...

the point being :

1 ft = 12 in and vice versa (1 in = 1/12 ft)

so, any measurements given in feet but needed in inches need to be multiplied by 12.

and any measurements given in inches but needed in feet need to be divided by 12.

so,

3.5 ft = 3.5×12 = 7/2 × 12 = 7×6 = 42 in

27 in = 27/12 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 or 2.25 ft

Step 1) Draw a dashed line through the points (0,6) and (4,7). These two points are on the line y = (1/4)x+6. To find those points, you plug in x = 0 to get y = 6. Similarly, plug in x = 4 to get y = 7. The dashed line indicates that none of the points on this line are part of the solution set.

Step 2) Draw a dashed line through (0,-1) and (1,1). These two points are on the line y = 2x-1. They are found in a similar fashion as done in step 1. 

Step 3) Shade the region that is above both dashed lines. We shade above because of the "greater than" sign. This is shown in the attached image I am providing below. The red shaded region represents all of the possible points that are the solution set. Once again, any point on the dashed line is not in the solution set.
