That is perfectly normal. The slope of the graph for converting inches to centimetres is not a whole number!
The slope of a line on a graph can be zero, or any positive or negative real whole number or fraction or decimal.
The slope of the graph of [ y = x + any number ] is 1 .
The slope for a straight line graph is the ratio of the amount by which the graph goes up (the rise) for every unit that it goes to the right (the run). If the graph goes down, the slope is negative. For a curved graph, the gradient at any point is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that point.
On the standard Cartesian graph, horizontal lines have zero slope. They all have the equation Y = a number

Yes. The graph of [ Y = 9x ] has a slope of 9 .
The slope of a line on a graph can be zero, or any positive or negative real whole number or fraction or decimal.
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. To graph this, look at b. The number there is the y intercept. Look on the y axis on the graph and find the place where that number occurs. Plot that point, which will be (0, b). Then look at the m term. This is the slope. Imagine this number as a fraction. If it is a whole number, imagine it as the whole number divided by one. The fraction is the slope. The numerator is how far you move up or down, and the denomontator is how far you move left and right on the graph. Find the second point this way, then you can draw your line. Hope this helps!
Yes, slope can be written as a whole number instead of a fraction if the slope is a whole number. In slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), the slope (m) represents the rate of change between two variables. If the slope is a whole number, it can be written as a whole number without the need for a fraction. For example, a slope of 3 would be written as "3" rather than "3/1."
A line on a graph with zero slope is a horizontalline.' Y ' is the same number at every point on the line.
The slope of the graph of [ y = x + any number ] is 1 .
For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.
The slope for a straight line graph is the ratio of the amount by which the graph goes up (the rise) for every unit that it goes to the right (the run). If the graph goes down, the slope is negative. For a curved graph, the gradient at any point is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that point.
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.

Slope cannot be determined by one number. You need either an equation, or two points that can be put on a graph.
