Answer:

The independent input is the cost of each necklace because you can buy a lot of jewerly and have the cost multiplied by how much they are going to buy. But the $6 of shipping is the dependent because you can as many jewerly as you want but the shipping amount multiplies depending on how much jewerly the person will buy.

hope this lets u know the answer comment if not.
