Answer 1

Answers:

• A) The equation is d = 2t
• B) Independent variable = time; dependent variable = amount of cookies

=========================================================

Explanation:

The independent variable is always long the horizontal axis. Often this is x, but we are using t in this case.

The variable t represents the amount of time in minutes. For instance, t = 2 means 2 minutes have elapsed. At this time, 4 cookies have been eaten as shown by the point (2,4). As another example, the point (3,6) means that d = 6 cookies have been eaten at time t = 3 minutes.

The equation is d = 2t because the '2' represents the rate of change of "eating 2 cookies per minute". Whatever the time value (t) is, we double it to get the value of d, which is the number of cookies eaten.
