Accepted Solution

A:
Read this sentence in the problem carefully.
"The number of pages in each program is determined by the number of graduates."

That means that you can have any number of graduates, and you will figure out the number of pages in the program depending on the number of graduates.

g, the number of graduates, is the independent independent variable.
p, the number of pages, is the dependent variable.
