I Which of the following is the most appropriate unit to describe the rate at which people are entering Disneyland? A People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people
B Hours per person, because the dependent quantity is the hours
C Hours per person, because the dependent quantity is the people
D People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the hours

d) People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people

Step-by-step 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 gets changed. In this situation, the number of people change every hour; this means the number of people gets 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.
