Q. Kayla works as a server at the Putnam Restaurant. The amount of money she earns during a shift depends on the number of tables she serves.m= the amount of money Kayla earnst= the number of tables Kayla servesWhich of the variables is independent and which is dependent?Choices:(A) t is the independent variable and m is the dependent variable(B) m is the independent variable and t is the dependent variable
Identify Variable Type: Identify whether m is the independent or the dependent variable. The amount of money Kayla earns (m) depends on the number of tables she serves (t). Therefore, m is not the variable that is set or controlled directly; it is the outcome of how many tables she serves.
Determine Independent Variable: Identify whether t is the independent or the dependent variable. The number of tables Kayla serves (t) does not depend on the amount of money she earns (m). Instead, it is likely determined by factors such as the number of customers or the restaurant's seating capacity. Thus, t is the variable that is controlled or set independently of the money earned.
Choose Correct Answer: Choose the correct answer choice based on the identification of independent and dependent variables. Since t is the independent variable and m is the dependent variable, the correct choice is (A)t is the independent variable and m is the dependent variable.
