Answer:

  • independent: hours
  • dependent: earnings (dollars)

Explanation:

Usually, when you have a rate of the form ...

A per B

we consider the B to be the independent variable. The value of A is then the dependent variable.

Here, you have dollars per hour, so ...

hours is the independent variable, and

dollars is the dependent variable.
