Could you please help me find the independent variable and the dependent variable please
Calculate the 2 possible values of x in this equation: x2 – 16x + 48 = 0, either by using the quadratic equation developed by Abu Abd-Allah ibn Musa al-Kwarizmi, or by factoring the integer values of x.
A. x = 4 or 12
x = 1 or 48
x = 16 or 3
x = 24 or 2
x = 8 or 6
