Jada and Lin are comparing inches and feet. Jada says that the constant of proportionality is 12. Lin says it is 112. 1. Do you agree with either of them?

Select the correct choice from the drop down.

2. Explain your reasoning.

Type your response in the space below.

Jada and lin are comparing inches and feet.

Let I denote inches and F denote feet.

It is given that

I =k F or F=m I

So, I/F=k or m=F/I

As  we know 1 feet = 12 inches

constant  of proportionality i.e k=1/12

In case 2, constant of proportionality=12/1=12

So, Jada must have calculated ratio of feet to inches while Lin has calculated the ratio of inches to feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units
