An independent variable is one that is not influenced by another variable.
A dependent variable relies on the value of the independent variable.
The independent variable goes “in” which represents our x value and the dependent variable comes “out” which represents our y value.
No matter what variable is being used, it still means x and y.
Identifying the Independent and Dependent Variable
Frank earns $8 per hour for mowing his neighbors lawn.
The amount of money he earns, m, relies on the amount of hours he mows, h.
The more hours he works, the more money he earns.
Therefore, the dependent variable is m, the money he earns and the independent variable is h, the amount of hours he works.
The amount of hours he works does not rely on the amount of money he makes.

Applying to the real world
The manager of Target raised the price $15 on each video game.
Independent Variable?
--Original Price
Dependent Variable?
--Price After Mark-up
Can you find an equation (rule) that will satisfy the total cost of the video game if given the original price?

Equations and Tables and Real Life Math!
Natalie is going ice skating. The skating rink charges $6.25 per hour of skating. We will let h represent the amount of hours of skating and c represent the total cost.
Write an equation to match this scenario.
How much would it cost to skate for 1 hour? For 2 hours? For 3 hours?
