A: Speed is Independent as it can be anything with no restrictions. Gas mileage is dependent as it relies on the value of speed for its value to be decided.
B: The first letter of speed is "S" so it can represent the variable. The first letter of mileage is "M" so the variable can be represented by that letter. It really can be any letter.
C: no context
D: no context
Degrees measures temperature,
liters measures liquids,
grams measures mass,
cubic centimeters measures volume.
You can do this by comparing your equation to the general form of equation of a circle
( x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 where (a,b) is the centre and r = radius:-
(x + 9)^2 (y + 6)^2 = 9
so (a,b) = (-9,-6) and r = 3
so the answer is B
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given

per mile
Solving (a): Linear Equation
The total charges (c(x)) is: the base charge + the rate * number of miles (x).
So, we have:


Solving (b): Cost of rent, if miles = 160
This implies that x = 160
So, we have:
