Identify Independent Variable: Step 1: Identify the independent variable.Since the number of guests at the party determines how many bottles of bubbles are needed, g is the independent variable. It sets the requirement for how many bottles to buy.
Identify Dependent Variable: Step 2: Identify the dependent variable. b is the dependent variable because the number of bottles Cora purchases depends on how many guests are attending the party.
Choose Correct Option: Step 3: Choose the correct option based on the identified variables.Since g is the independent variable and b is the dependent variable, the correct choice is (B) g is the independent variable and b is the dependent variable.
