Answer: independent variable: time (t). Dependent variable: distance (d).
Step-by-step explanation: an independent variable is a variable whose variation does not depend on that of another. In the given problem, the independent variable is time, because time will pass by no matter what (without depending in any other variable). The dependent variable in this case is the distance, because how far Jillian goes, depends on how much time she expends walking and jogging.
Answer:
10 quarters = $2.50
10 nickels = $0.50
that leaves $0.20 for other coins (dimes / pennies)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, suppose she has only quarters and nickels and no other coins. Then if C is the identical number of coins of each type, then 5C + 25C = 320, so 30C = 320 and 3C = 32, but there is no integer solution to this. So she must have at least one other type of coin.
Assume she has only quarters, nickels, and dimes. Then if D is the number of dimes, 5C + 25C + 10D = 320, which means 30C + 10D = 320, or 3C + D = 32. The smallest D can be is 2, leaving 3C = 30 and thus C = 10. So in this scenario she would have 10 quarters, 10 nickels, and two dimes to make $2.50 + $0.50 + $0.20 = $3.20.
This has to be the highest number, because if she had 11 quarters and 11 nickels, that alone would add up to 11(0.25) + 11(0.05) = $3.30, which would already be too much.
I say it is C. Basically I just eliminate the potential answered down. A could not be the one since not all student in 2nd period got 100% and average students got below 95%. B cannot be it since both box plot have the same median. I do not think D is it because of how the answer is told. "The 4th period class should get the reward. Their lowest score is an outlier, and should be thrown out," it sound childish and makeing a joke to put "and should be thrown out." I may be wrong but that is my opinion. The relatively the best and reasonable answer is C.
