What is an independent quantity?

Back

An independent quantity is a variable that can change freely without being affected by other variables. For example, in the equation y = 3x, x is independent.

What is an additive relationship?

Back

An additive relationship is when one quantity increases by a constant amount as another quantity increases. For example, if you earn 2 points for each movie you watch, the total points is additive.

What does the term 'quantity' mean in mathematics?

Back

A quantity refers to an amount or number that can be measured or counted.

What is the significance of the equation C = f + 6?

Back

This equation indicates that the cost of a corsage (C) is equal to the number of flowers (f) plus 6, suggesting a fixed cost added to the variable cost.
