OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part C.

oregonduck (oregonduck):

what about part c

OpenStudy (misty1212):

HI!!

OpenStudy (misty1212):

it says use two variables right?

oregonduck (oregonduck):

yup

OpenStudy (misty1212):

so what do you want to use, the usual \(x\) and \(y\) or maybe \(h\) and\(p\) for "hours" and "pay"

oregonduck (oregonduck):

h and p

OpenStudy (misty1212):

then the pay depends on the hours, so \[p=5h\] that is all

oregonduck (oregonduck):

which is dependent and which is independent for this situation

oregonduck (oregonduck):

someone plz help me i do not what to do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as @misty1212 said.... "the pay depends on the hours", so which one do you think is de dependet one?

oregonduck (oregonduck):

hours

oregonduck (oregonduck):

?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

lol no dear

oregonduck (oregonduck):

so pay then

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the pay depends on the hours

oregonduck (oregonduck):

oh ok

OpenStudy (misty1212):

it is really a dumb question because of course if you know how much you got paid you know the hours you worked too, but you math teacher wants you to day "hours is independent, pay is dependent'

oregonduck (oregonduck):

i need help with partb i am confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just pick 3 possible values for "h" and calculate the value for "p" using: \[p=5h\] example: h=3 ---> p=5*3=15

oregonduck (oregonduck):

ok

oregonduck (oregonduck):

how about part c?
