Answer 1

Hey there! Hello!

This can be represented by the equation y=2.54x, where:

y=measurement in inches
x=measurement in cm

You can plug any value into this problem to reveal that this is a linear function. I provided a graph of this to further prove the point. 

Hope this helped you out, feel free to ask any additional questions if you need further clarification! :-)
