An individual is hosting a cookout for the kick ball team. The individual wants to have two hot dogs for each guest, and 6 extra hot dogs in case some teammates bring friends. Which variable is dependent?

6 extra hot dogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in a scientific experiment. The dependent variable is 'dependent' on the independent variable

The 6 hot dogs are dependent on whether the teammates will bring friends. In other words, if there are no friends, there are no hot dogs. Note that the teammates are the independent variable that is they are not dependent on any variable.
