Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Independent Variable
The independent variable is the condition that you change in an experiment. It is the variable you control. It is called independent because its value does not depend on and is not affected by the state of any other variable in the experiment. Sometimes you may hear this variable called the "controlled variable" because it is the one that is changed. Do not confuse it with a "control variable," which is a variable that is purposely held constant so that it can't affect the outcome of the experiment.
Dependent Variable
The dependent variable is the condition that you measure in an experiment. You are assessing how it responds to a change in the independent variable, so you can think of it as depending on the independent variable. Sometimes the dependent variable is called the "responding variable."
I believe the answer is 12
Let the actual size be x, then
(5 x 10^2)x = 1.2 x 10^2
x = (1.2 x 10^2 / 5 x 10^2) = 0.24 millimeters
Therefore, the actual size is 0.24 millimiters.
Answer:
B. 10
C. All real numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)
Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:
12x - 24 = 8x + 16
Subtract both sides by '8x'
12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16
4x - 24 = 16
Add '24' to both sides:
4x = 40
Divide both sides by 4:
x = 10. Therefore, <u>B. 10</u> is the correct answer.
3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)
Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:
12p - 6 = -6 + 12p
Subtract '12p' from both sides:
12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p
0 -6 = -6
Add '6' to both sides:
0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6
0 = 0
Therefore, the solution consists of <u>all real numbers.</u>
