y = x + 5 x : number of miles you have walked y : distance from your home

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the more you walk the farther you wil be from home right ?

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

Yeah

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So which variable depends on which?

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

I was thinking B. since the dependent variable is something you measure, and independent is something you change like.... c?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

your thinking is good :)

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

So B and C.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

here, "distance from your home" depends on "miles you walk" so dependent variable = distance from your home independent variable = number of miles you walk

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep! good job !!

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

mind helping me with a few more? :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
