Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables in the table, showing the temperature of liquid in a beaker on a Bunsen burner over time. Which best represents their relationship?
In this scenario, the independent variable is time (in minutes) and the dependent variable is the temperature of the liquid in the beaker (in degrees Celsius). As time increases, the temperature of the liquid also increases. This relationship can be best represented as a positive linear relationship, where as time increases, the temperature also increases in a linear fashion.
