Question

In which scenario can you reverse the dependent and independent variables and still have a meaningful real-world interpretation of slope?

A.
As the amount of water vapor in the air increases, the rate at which you perspire increases.

B.
As the amount of fuel used by a running vehicle increases, the distance the vehicle travels increases.

C.
As the amount of fertilizer used on a field of crops increases, the yield of that crop increases.
D.
As the amount of rainfall in a region increases, the level of the groundwater in the region increases.

Answer 1

the answer is c cause the more fertilizer the more crops

Answer 2

Well, x and y is like cause and effect.

So for the first one, it says you sweat more because there's more water vapor in the air. It wouldn't make sense to switch it by saying there's more water vapor in the air because you sweat more.

And for the third, the amount of fertilizer used wouldn't increase because the crop produces more.

The fourth, it wouldn't make sense to say the rainfall increases because the groundwater increases.

The only one that makes sense is the second, by saying the more fuel consumed, the more distance is traveled.

So the answer is B. I hope I helped.

Answer 3

Cause he will mostly likely trust every answer off here.
