Q. Keenan and Sam are going hiking and are trying to figure out how much water they should bring with them on the hike. The longer they plan to hike, the more water they should bring.t= the length of the hikew= the amount of water they should bring on the hikeWhich of the variables is independent and which is dependent?Choices:(A) w is the independent variable and t is the dependent variable(B) t is the independent variable and w is the dependent variable
Identify Relationship: Identify the relationship between the variables: The length of the hike t influences how much water w Keenan and Sam should bring. Therefore, t is the cause and w is the effect.
Define Variables: Define the variables: Since t (the length of the hike) determines w (the amount of water), t is the independent variable and w is the dependent variable.
Match Correct Choice: Match the correct choice: Based on the definitions, the correct choice is (B)t is the independent variable and w is the dependent variable.
