A photographer charges a sitting fee of $15 plus $3 per pose. What is the dependent variable

Question

number of pose
cost
$15
$3

Answer 1

In this scenario, the dependent variable is the cost.

The cost depends on the number of poses chosen by the photographer. As the number of poses increases, the total cost will also increase, making cost the dependent variable. The number of poses is the independent variable because it determines the total cost.
