The variables are: time(the independent variable or (x) variable) and number of handbags (the dependent variable or (y) variable). The variables helps to plot an accurate points on the graph.
Answer:- The variables are time and number of handbags.
Explanation:-
A variable is a quantity which varies. There are two kinds of variables 1) Independent variable- which is not dependent on any factor. 2) Dependent variable-which is dependent on independent variable.
Here, time is the independent variable and number of handbags is dependent variable which is dependent on time.
