Let x be the number of meters of a given number of inches. The equation that would be useful in the conversion is,
                               x = n / 39.37
where n is the number of inches. For 59 inches,
                              x = 59 in / 39.37
Thus, the number of meter is approximately equal to 1.499 meters.

Answer:

\(f(x) = \frac{x}{39.37}\)

f(59) = 1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

1 meter = 39.37 inches,

⇒ 1 inch = \(\frac{1}{39.37}\) meter,

⇒ x inches = \(\frac{x}{39.37}\) meters,

If f(x) represents the number of meters in x inches,

\(\implies f(x) = \frac{x}{39.37}\)

Which is the required function.

If x = 59,

\(f(59)=\frac{59}{39.37}=1.49860299721\approx 1.50\)
