Given:
The length of a string in yards is a function f(n) of the length n in inches
To find:
The function rule for the given situation.
Solution:
We know that,
12 inches = 1 yard
1 inch = [tex]\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex] yard
n inches = [tex]\dfrac{n}{12}[/tex] yards
It is given that the length of a string in yards is a function f(n) of the length n in inches. So,
[tex]f(n)=\dfrac{n}{12}[/tex]
Therefore, the required function for the given situation is [tex]f(n)=\dfrac{n}{12}[/tex].
