Answer:

The input value or independent variable is number of questions that you answer correctly on this quiz (variable x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of questions that you answer correctly on this quiz

y ----> the total number of points you score on this quiz

In this problem

The output value or dependent variable is the total number of points you score on this quiz (variable y)

The input value or independent variable is number of questions that you answer correctly on this quiz (variable x)

we have

$y=10x$

This linear equation represent a proportional relationship between the variables x and y

where

k=10

K is the constant of proportionality or slope of the linear equation
