the total cost c of buying b cans of beans can be found using the equation c= $0.79b. What is represented by the dependent variable.

Answer :

Answer:

The total cost is represented by the dependent variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a function:

[tex]y = f(x)[/tex]

x is the independent variable and y is the dependent one, since y is a function of x.

In this problem:

[tex]c = f(b) = 0.79b[/tex]

So the total cost of buying b cans of beans is 0.79b. That is, the total cost depends of the number of cans of beans bought.

So the total cost is represented by the dependent variable.
