Question

8 PTS.

The student council produced a yearbook celebrating the school year. The books were ordered from a local shop that charges a setup fee of $200 plus $8 for each book.


What are the independent and dependent variables in this situation?

Answer 1

The dependent variable: the total cost

The independent variable: the amount of books

If the equation is y = 8x + 200

y would be the dependent variable and x would be the independent variable

I hope this helps.
