In the context of the agricultural report, the independent and dependent variables are identified as follows:

  • Independent variable (d): the amount of water (since it is the factor being manipulated or changed)
  • Dependent variable (i): the number of limes produced (since it is the outcome that is measured in response to the amount of water received)

Therefore, the correct response is:

i = the number of limes produced
d = the amount of water
i equals the number of limes produced d equals the amount of water
