This graph shows the balance of a savings account after w weeks, where the money is being deposited at a constant rate. What is the independent variable?

473

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

The independent variable in an equation is one you can freely change. In the equation y = 3x + 2, for instance, x is our independent variable. We can plug in anything we'd like for x and through pure arithmetic, get a value out for y. If we picked x = 2, then y = 3(2) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8. The dependent variable in this example is y, since it depends on the value of x we pick.

In this problem, the total savings in our account depends on the number of weeks it's deposited for, so the savings is our dependent variable, and the number of weeks w is our independent variable.

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
