Answer: Independent variable is what is being modified, it is important to compare it to your control group, (which is the original).

Dependent variable is what is being measured, to compare it to the control group to see if your hypothesis works or not.

Explanation: Here's a(n) example:

Bob wanted to take a mint with a mint drop, and he wanted to measure if it can make his breath fresher, but he also wanted to take it with a regular mint to see which is the freshest breath.

Independent variable: Mint drop.

Dependent Variable: Breath (To see if it is going to change with a mint drop.)

Control Group- Regular mint.

Find the unit rate with the second given unit in the denominator.
Kobotan [32]
First, the unit is words per minute, not the other way round because you're interested in how fast people can type, not how much time passes for every number of words they write or read (that would be minutes per word)

now, we know they do 4200 in 60 minutes. 

we need to divide 4200 by 60- first,\frac{4200}{60} = \frac{420}{6} = \frac{21}{3} =70

so the answer is, 70 words per minute

I think you made a typo in your answer and you meant 4600 instead of 4200 - then the answer is <span>C. 76 2/3 word/min</span>
