Q. Lila is picking apples for apple pies. The more apples she picks, the more apple pies she will be able to bake.a= the number of apples Lila picksp= the number of apple pies Lila will be able to bakeWhich of the variables is independent and which is dependent?Choices:(A) a is the independent variable and p is the dependent variable(B) p is the independent variable and a is the dependent variable
Determine Relationship: Determine the relationship between the two variables. Lila's ability to bake apple pies depends on the number of apples she picks. Therefore, the number of apples a is the cause, and the number of pies p is the effect.
Identify Independent Variable: Identify the independent variable. The independent variable is the one that can be changed freely, which in this case is the number of apples Lila picks a.
Identify Dependent Variable: Identify the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the one that depends on the independent variable, which in this case is the number of apple pies Lila can bake p, as it depends on the number of apples she has picked.
Choose Correct Answer: Choose the correct answer choice based on the identification of independent and dependent variables. Since a is the independent variable and p is the dependent variable, the correct choice is (A) a is the independent variable and p is the dependent variable.
