Answer: It would be a Constant variable.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Initial temperature;
432.76
Common ratio;
-0.067
Equation;

Step-by-step explanation:
In this scenario, the time in minutes represents the independent variable x while the temperature of the pizza represents the dependent variable y.
The analysis is performed in Ms. Excel. The first step is to obtain a scatter plot of the data then finally inserting an exponential trend line to obtain the required equation.
The Ms. Excel output is shown in the attachment below. To obtain the initial temperature we substitute x = 0 in the equation. On the other hand, the common ratio is the exponent in the equation.
The correct answers are B and C.
Since the mixture requires 5 mL of black wax and 6 mL of white wax, we want multiples of these numbers; specifically, we need multiples that are the same number of times away.
A does not work; 10 is 5*2 and 24 is 6*4. These won't be in the same ratio.
B works; 15 is 5*3 and 18 is 6*3. These have the same ratio.
C works; 35 is 5*7 and 42 is 6*7. These have the same ratio.
D does not work; 26 is not a multiple of 6.
E does not work; 45 is 5*9 and 48 is 6*8. These will not have the same ratio.
Why are you even asking, i'll edit the answer once I know.
