You are getting on an elevator that is already filled with several people. You wonder if your weight will put the elevator over the maximum weight limit. You know that your weight is 132 pounds. In the equation below, p is the weight of all the people already on the elevator, and t is the total weight inside the elevator after you get on. The relationship between these two variables can be expressed by the following equation: t=p+132. What is the dependent variable?

A.The total weight inside the elevator after you get on.
B.The weight of all the people already on the elevator.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

T is the dependent variable

a dependent variable means it depends on something so if a number changes it will change the end result for T.

T is dependent on P since if the weight on the elevator changes the total weight will change. That is what makes it dependent.
