Table. p (pages): 60, 120, 180. m (minutes): 5, 10, 15. Esme's printer prints at a steady rate. It has printed 360 pages. For how many minutes has it printed?
Table. m (magnets): 40, 80, 120. b (boxes): 4, 8, 12. Every box Kira opens has the same number of magnets. The science room has 200 magnets. How many boxes is that?
Table. m (minutes): 3, 6, 9. l (liters): 12, 24, 36. Luz's fountain pumps water at a steady rate. It has pumped 84 liters. For how many minutes has it run?
Table. t (hours): 2, 4, 6. d (miles): 7, 14, 21. Milo walks and covers 3.5 more miles each hour. What equation for d fits?
The growth of Ren's sunflower is graphed. What equation for h fits?
Table. s (Esme's age in years): 2, 5, 9. n (Noah's age in years): 6, 9, 13. Noah's and Esme's ages are shown at three birthdays. What equation for n fits?
Table. k (Kira's meters): 5, 8, 12. t (Tala's meters): 10, 13, 17. Tala starts 5 m ahead of Kira on a path, and the table shows where each stands. What equation for t fits?
Table. m (magnets): 18, 36, 54. b (boxes): 1, 2, 3. Every box Tala opens has the same number of magnets. The table shows magnets m and boxes b. Which is the independent variable?
- b (boxes)
- m (magnets)
- Both: neither one depends on the other
The magnets in Ari's boxes are graphed. Magnets m are on the vertical axis and boxes b are on the horizontal axis. What does the plotted point say?
Graph. Horizontal axis: b (boxes), ticks every 1, from 0 to 8. Vertical axis: m (magnets), ticks every 10, from 0 to 100. One point is plotted at (5, 90). Graph. Horizontal axis: b (boxes), ticks every 1, from 0 to 8. Vertical axis: m (magnets), ticks every 10, from 0 to 100. One point is plotted at (5, 90). 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 b (boxes) m (magnets) - m = 90 for each box
- b = 90 and m = 5
- b = 5 and m = 90
Table. t (days): 1, 2, 3. h (millimeters): 3, 6, 9. Jun's seedling grows the same amount each day, and the growth is graphed from the table. Which variable goes on the horizontal axis?
- t (days), the independent variable
- h (millimeters), the dependent variable
- Either one: it does not matter
