The number of rides is the independent variable, and the total cost is the dependent variable. D.) The total cost is the independent variable, and the number of rides is the dependent variable.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: BStep-by-step explanation:The total cost is dependent because it relies on how many rides Nia takes, and the $19.50 limit.The number of rides is dependent on the limit of $19.50 because the $19.50 is the limit and the total amount of rides is locked by $19.50I'm not sure, though.
