The <u><em>correct answer</em></u> is:
d) People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people
Explanation:
In this situation, the two quantities are people and hours. These are the two things in this problem we can count or measure.
The independent variable is the one that causes a change, while the dependent variable is the one that <em>gets</em> changed. In this situation, the number of people change every hour; this means the number of people <em>gets</em> changed, which makes it the dependent variable. This means that the independent variable must be time.
Since people is dependent and time is independent, "people per hour" would be the best form of this statement.
Just look at the top triangles
Angles in a triangle add up to 180°
To find the angle next to 36°:
It shows that all together its a 90° angle so you do 90-36= 54°
To find the angle next to 88°:
Angles on a straight line add up to 180° so you do 180-88= 92°
You now have the 2 of the angles in the triangle with angle 1
You now add these 2 angles so 54+92= 146°
and as angles in a triangle add up to 180° you do 180-146= 34°
So angle 1 is 34°
