Which statement best describes the function h(t) = 210 – 15t? h is the function name; h(t) is the input, or independent variable
; and t is the output, or dependent variable. h is the function name; t is the input, or independent variable; and h(t) is the output, or dependent variable. t is the function name; h(t) is the input, or independent variable; and h is the output, or dependent variable. t is the function name; h is the input, or independent variable; and h(t) is the output, or dependent variable
<span>The function h(t) = 210 – 15t has the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line. The y-intercept represents the amount h at the very beginning (when t=0). The negative slope (-15) represents the amount by which h will decrease if t is increased by 1.
We are manipulating the value of time, t, so time, t, is the independent variable, and h(t) = y is the dependent variable.</span>
