Using function concepts, it is found that the correct statements are:
A Time is the independent variable.
D Distance is the dependent variable.
E Rate of change is Δdistance/Δtime
G Ted's rate of change is 10 miles per hour.
J Jason's rate of change is 20 miles per hour.
What is the relation between a function and the dependent and independent variables?
A function has the following format: y = f(x).
In which each value of y is a function of one value of x, and thus, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
In this problem, the distance depends on the time, hence distance is the dependent variable and time is independent, which means that options A and D are correct.
The rate of change is given by the change in the output(dependent) divided by the change in the input(independent), hence option E is correct.
For Ted, the rate is of 10 mph, while for Jason, it is of 20 mph. Hence options G and J are correct.
