Question 9 • FL-1205010-M/J Grade 6 Mathematics B -GF
The number of pages Kevin reads is 35 times the number of hours: for example, 2 hours gives 70 pages. The hours, h, are the independent variable because they determine how many pages are read; the pages, p, are the dependent variable. Spending more hours reading leads to more pages, so the statements claiming that pages increase as time decreases or that more pages take less time are incorrect.
