PLS HELP ME ON THIS QUESTION I WILL MARK YOU AS BRAINLIEST IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER PLS GIVE ME A STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION!!
Larry is going on a road trip for work. He is recording how many miles he drives, and how many gallons of gas he uses for his expense report. Which is the independent variable?

A. the amount of miles Larry drives
B. the type of roads Larry drives on
C. the type of car Larry drives
D. the amount of gasoline Larry uses

Respuesta :

My best guess would be that the independent variable is A. the amount of miles Larry drives.
An independent variable is one that isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure.
The amount of miles Larry drives doesn’t depend on anything in this situation.
The question only mentions gallons of gas and miles so I would think you disregard the type of roads Larry drives on and type of car Larry drives.
The amount of gasoline Larry uses is a dependent variable because it depends on the amount of miles Larry drives.
Hope this helps
