Answer 1

According to the given statement Jewels has $6.75 to ride the ferry around Connecticut. It will cost her $0.45 every time she rides.

It means that if she rides a ferry, she pays

If she does not ride the ferry she won't pay

This shows that the paying depends on riding.

Thus riding is independent variable and cost is dependent....
