Jada and lin are comparing inches and feet. Jada says that the constant of proportionality is 12. Lin says it is 1/12

Jada compared ratio of feet to inches while Lin compared ratio of inches to feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Inches = x

Feet = y

Constant of proportionality = k

ratio of feet to inches

x = ky

1 feet = 12 inches

12 = k * 1

k = 12/1

k = 12

Ratio of inches to feet.

y = kx

1 = k * 12

k = 1/12

Jada compared ratio of feet to inches while Lin compared ratio of inches to feet.

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.
