Answer: Independent quantity : number of jelly beans in the jar guessed.

Dependent quantity : number of the jelly beans each person was off by.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Independent quantity : A quantity that the experimenter can change or control.
  • Dependent quantity : A quantity that depends on each independent quantity.

In the given scenario, there are two quantities introduced:

  1. number of jelly beans in the jar guessed.
  2. number of the jelly beans each person was off by.

Since, "number of the jelly beans each person was off by." depends on "number of jelly beans in the jar guessed.".

So,

Independent quantity : number of jelly beans in the jar guessed.

Dependent quantity : number of the jelly beans each person was off by.
