Question A student records the time it takes for her pet rabbit to make it through a maze to a carrot. In one test, she has the rabbit try to find the carrot at 8:00 AM after eating its first meal of the day. In the other test, the rabbit tries to find the carrot at 8:00 AM without having eaten its first meal of the day. In this experiment, which variable is the outcome variable? (1 point) Responses

a.whether the rabbit is hungry or not

b.whether or not the rabbit finds the carrot

c.the time required to finish the maze

d.the time of day when the rabbit starts the maze

1 answer

The outcome variable in this experiment is:

c. the time required to finish the maze

This is because the time taken to finish the maze is the measurement that is being recorded and analyzed based on the conditions of the experiment (whether the rabbit has eaten or not).
