Question

for the experiment, determine the independent and dependent variable with the correct axes they should appear when plotted. an instructor wanted to know if there was a relationship between the number of hours a student studies and the score the student earns on the exam. independent (x-axis) is exam score dependent (y-axis) is hours studied independent (x-axis) is hours studied dependent (y-axis) is exam score independent (x-axis) is hours studied dependent (x-axis) is exam score independent (y-axis) is hours studied dependent (x-axis) is exam score

Explanation:

To determine independent and dependent variables: The independent variable is the one we manipulate or that exists independently (Hours Studied, as it's the input factor). The dependent variable depends on the independent one (Exam Score, as it's the outcome we measure). In a graph, the independent variable is on the x - axis and the dependent on the y - axis. So Independent (x - axis) is Hours Studied, Dependent (y - axis) is Exam Score.

Answer:

Independent (x - axis) is Hours Studied, Dependent (y - axis) is Exam Score (the option: Independent (x - axis) is Hours Studied, Dependent (y - axis) is Exam Score)
