Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A dependent variable in an expression is one whose value can be determined only when the value of other variable (i.e independent) is known.

A. The cost at the fitness center depends on the number of months (x).

The cost is the dependent variable, and number of months (x) is the independent variable.

f(x) = 100 + 40x

Example, the cost paid for 12 months can be determined as;

f(12) = 100 + 40(12)

       = 100 + 480

       = 580

Thus, $580 would be paid for 12 months at the fitness center.

B. The lettuce is sold at $1.69 per pound. The cost depends on the number of pounds of lettuce bought.

The cost is the dependent variable, while the number of pounds of lettuce (x) bought is the independent variable.

So that;

f(x) = 1.69x

The cost of 10 pounds of lettuce can be determined as;

f(x) = 1.69(10)

     = 16.9

Thus, the cost of 10 lb of lettuce is $16.90.
