Each package of hot dog buns contains 8 buns. let p be the number of packages of hot dog buns and b be the total number of buns. determine which variable is independent and which is dependent. then, write an equation that models the situation, and make a table showing the number of hot dog buns in 3 to 8 packages.

Answer with explanation:

Given : Each package of hot dog buns contains 8 buns.

Let p be the number of packages of hot dog buns and b be the total number of buns.

∵ number of buns dependent on the number of packages of hot dogs required.

Thus , the independent variable is p →the number of packages .

and dependent variable is b → the number of buns.

The equation that models the situation :

Required table :

3            8(3)=24

4            8(4)=32

5           8(5)=40

6            8(6)=48

7            8(7)=56

8            8(8)=64

a negative exponent is translated as follows:

so, we have
