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?

Answer 1

As the time on the Bunsen burner increases, the temperature of the liquid in the beaker also increases. This shows a positive relationship between the two variables, where as time increases, temperature also increases. This relationship can be best represented as a linear relationship.
