D. the number of prizes available

Answer 1

I think it's the number of points earned. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Answer 2

Well what you need to know is what amount of point's you get per prize. So you get 200 point's per prize, and the dependent variable is A because you don't know how many point's he get's without it. So your answer is A. Hope this helps..
