Question

You have set a goal to drink more water every day. Your water bottle holds 0.5 liters of water. In the equation below, b is the number of times you drink all the water in your bottle, and l is the number of liters of water you drink.

The relationship between these two variables can be expressed by the following equation:
l= 0.5b


Identify the dependent and independent variables.

Answer 1

Dependent Variable- l Independent Variable-b

Explanation:

Dependent Variables are always Y and Independent Variables are always x.

In this case y=I and x=b. The amount of water your water bottle will hold will never change. But the amount of water you drink can change.
