Question

1.) Identify the independent and dependent variables.

2.) Name the ordered pair at point C and explain what it represents.

Answer 1

1.

So the independent variable is always at the x-axis, and in this case it's time.

The dependent variable is always on the y-axis, and in this case it's temperature.

2.

So ordered pair is (x,y), and in this case it's (8, 87). In context, at 8 AM the temperature was 87 F°.
