Question 477231: In each of the four examples listed below, one of the given variables is independent (x) and one of the given variables is dependent (y). Indicate in each case which variable is independent and which variable is dependent.
I. Course grade; Test score
II. Length of ride; Taxi fare
III. Monthly commission; Monthly sales
IV. Crop yield; Rainfall
Thank you
Knowing the value of the independent variable you can calculate the value of the dependent variable. For example, knowing the test score, you can calculate the course grade, so test score is independent and course grade is dependent -- that is it depends on the value of the independent variable.
You can do the other three yourself.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
