Q:

My niece wanted to create a coverup she saw on Pinterest. It required a square piece of patterned fabric. We found an online store with some bright and fun samples of fabric at a reasonable price. They charge a flat shipping fee of $10 and then $3 per yard.The formula 3n + 10 = t can be used to determine the total cost of the fabric, where n is the number of yards purchased, and t is the total cost of the fabric1.1. What is the dependent variable (or write “neither” if there is not one)? _______________Explain why or why not:

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: y is the dependent variable. Step-by-step explanation:Hi, to answer we have to equation given: 3n + 10 = t Where: n is the number of yards t is the total cost of the fabric.  n is an input value, the independent variable, and y is the output value that depends on the value of n. For example if he purchases 1 yard of fabric: t(n) =3n+10 t(1) =3(1) +10 t(1)= 3+10 t=13 t depends on the value of n , so , y is the dependent variable.
