Q. Kinsley is hosting a potluck dinner for her book club. The number of chairs she will need depends on the number of members who attend.c= the number of chairs Kinsley will needm= the number of members who attend the potluckWhich of the variables is independent and which is dependent?Choices:(A) c is the independent variable and m is the dependent variable(B) m is the independent variable and c is the dependent variable
Understand Relationship Between Variables: Understand the relationship between the variables.In this scenario, the number of chairs needed c is determined by the number of members who attend m. This means that the number of chairs is dependent on the number of members. The independent variable is the one that is changed or controlled in a scientific experiment to test the effects on the dependent variable. In this case, the number of members who decide to attend is the factor that will change and affect the number of chairs needed.
Identify Variables: Identify the independent and dependent variables.Since the number of chairs needed depends on the number of members attending, the independent variable is m (the number of members who attend), and the dependent variable is c (the number of chairs Kinsley will need).
