<span>Amount of Rice (cups) Amount of Water (cups)
2                                     5
3                                     7.5
5                                   12.5
8                                   20

Let's find the ratio of rice and water:

5 / 2 = 2.5 => 2 * 5 = 5

7.5 / 3 = 2.5 => 3 * 2.5 = 7

12.5 / 5 = 2.5 => 5 * 2.5 = 12.5

20 / 8 = 2.5 => 8 * 2.5 = 20

So, as the ratio of water ot rice is constant, and the first variable is the amount of rice, you can calculate the amount of water given the amount of rice.

So, the amount of rice is independent value and the amount of water is dependent (it depends on the amount of rice).

The amount of rice is the dependent value. FALSE
The amount of water is the dependent value.TRUE
The amount of rice is the independent value. TRUE
The amount of water is the independent value.</span>FALSE

Answer:

The second and third answers are the correct answers. I was going to write out the explanation, but the person above me is correct so I don't have to. (Not that I copied off them- it'd just be a waste of time if I wrote the same explanation as them). Hope this helps and is a reassurance to whoever needs this! :)

79 x 31 rounding or compatible numbers . show how you estimate
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

80 × 30 = 2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily round 79 up to 80 and round 31 down to 30. This would make our expression 80 × 30, which is much easier to compute. We just take 8 × 3 (which is 24) and add two zeros onto the end of the number. This yields us an answer of 2,400 which is very close to the actual multiplication of 79 × 31 which is 2,449 (only 49 more than our estimation).
