The third time he plays Taylor Swift. When he plays Taylor Swift, Maggie immediately and starts to smile. •What is the independent variable? •What is the hypothesis? •What is the dependent variable? •Milhouse says Bart needs to try to see what Maggie will do if he doenst play any music At all. What is this called?

Independent variable: THE TYPE OF MUSIC PLAYED

Dependent variable: MAGGIE'S TEARS

Hypothesis: IF Taylor Swift's music is played, THEN Maggie will stop crying

Control group

Explanation:

The hypothesis of an experiment is a testable explanation given to possibly solve an observed problem. In this question, Maggie thinks Taylor Swift's music will get Maggie to stop crying, hence, one can hypothesize that: IF Taylor Swift's music is played, THEN Maggie will stop crying

Independent variable is the variable that the experimenter manipulates or changes in order to bring about an outcome. The independent variable in this experiment is the THE TYPE OF MUSIC PLAYED by Bart because it is what is changed.

Dependent variable is the variable that is being measured. It responds to the changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is MAGGIE'S TEARS.

Milhouse says Bart needs to try to see what Maggie will do if he doenst play any music At all, this is called the CONTROL GROUP because the control group of an experiment is the group that does not receive any experimental treatment i.e. the independent variable is not added.

the answer is b)3/8x+1
