Answer:

The independent variable is the week's, the dependent variable is the height in inches.

Explanation:

The independent variable is the variable that when changed, something changes because of it. So for example, for plant A, in 2 weeks (independent) thevplant will grow 2 inches (dependent). The dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent.

Extra Information is below

Y-intercept: The y-intercept is when the line crosses with the line when the x-axis is 0. For example, plant B is by 0 weeks, it was 4 inches. The y-intercept will be 4 inches because that is where the plant started before any change in the independent variable.

Slope: Y = mx + b. To get the answer for this equation, you first need to find out the constant, the constant if we're using plant A, is 6. The constant is also the y-intercept. The equation will look like Y = mx + 6. The m is the number that when multiplied with the independent variable, then added with the constant, you get y. The m for plant A is 1, the equation should look like y = 1x + 6. Now change the x with the independent variable in the table. The independent variable is 2, so y = 1(2) + 6, y = 2 + 6, y = 8.
