Answer:
A) Cost is the dependent variable
B) $75.00
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Cost of renting a snowmobile for 5 hours = $37.50
a)
If c represents the cost and h represents the hours. then cost is the dependent variable as it depends upon the number of hours for which the snowmobile is rented.
b)
Cost of renting a snowmobile for 1 hour =
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{\text{Cost for 5 hours}}{\text{Number of hours}} = \frac{37.5}{5} = \$7.5[/tex]
Cost of renting 2 snowmobiles for 5 hours =
[tex]\text{Cost of renting a snowmobile for 5 hours }\times 2 = 37.5\times 2 = \$75[/tex]
