Brady creates the graph below to keep track of the approximate height of the grass on his

lawn over time

What is the dependent variable in the situation?

Brady's Lawn

the number of days it takes for the grass to

grow an inch

the height of the grass, in inches

the number of inches the grass grows each

day

Height of Grass (inches)

the amount of time that has passed. In days

Time (days)

Time is the independent variable and Height of the Grass is the dependent variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is about the height of the grass thourgh time, that means Brady is analysing how long it takes to the grass to grow.

It's important to know that time is a variable which doesn't depends on any other variabel, that is, it's an independent variable all the time.

Therefore, Time is the independent variable and Height of the Grass is the dependent variable.

This is just simple deduction, because the grass grows through time, it doesn't happen in the opposite way, time doesn't change accoring to the height of the grass.
