Q. The Greene farm sells eggs to local restaurants. The number of hens on the farm varies from month to month. The number of eggs that the farm is able to produce in a month depends on the number of hens on the farm.\newlinegg = the number of eggs produced by the farm in a month\newlinehh = the number of hens on the farm\newlineWhich of the variables is independent and which is dependent?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) hh is the independent variable and gg is the dependent variable\newline(B) gg is the independent variable and hh is the dependent variable
  1. Identify Variables: In this scenario, we need to identify the independent and dependent variables. The independent variable is the one that is changed or controlled in a scientific experiment to test the effects on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the one being tested and measured.
  2. Independent Variable: Since the number of eggs produced by the farm in a month gg depends on the number of hens on the farm hh, we can say that the number of hens is the independent variable because it can be changed or controlled. The number of eggs produced is the dependent variable because it is the result that changes in response to the number of hens.
