look at this

Smithers thinks that a special juice will increase the productivity of workers. He creates two groups of 50 workers each and assigns each group the same task (in this case, they're supposed to staple a set of papers). Group A is given the special juice to drink while they work. Group B is not given the special juice. After an hour, Smithers counts how many stacks of papers each group has made. Group A made 1,587 stacks, Group B made 2,113 stacks.

now i know the independent variable is the special juice but i'm confused as to what the dependent variable is,so if you could please help me.

I am in search of phD programs in Mathematics across the country, and I am targetting at some of the better institutions. I am gonna take the GRE general test next month, but I am still struggling on whether I should take the Subject test as well. Does anybody know any GOOD phd math program admission without the requirement of the subject test? And what is the odd to get into a good program without going through this test? Thank you!

You may not be "bound" to answer this question, but if you don't, I will see to it that you're "bound" to your computer for the rest of the evening.

What is the difference between a hypothesis, an inference, and a prediction? They are all made after taking observations but what is the main thing setting them apart? Also, what's the difference between a Control Group and a Constant?

Well, I am attending college full time and I have no experience in a job whatsoever, I have been trying to get a job but its impossible because I go to school from 8-1pm, plus 1hr drive each way and my whole day is spent. I was thinking on trying to get me a certificate on something that is less than 8months. I found Phlebotomy usually takes 6 months at the most. Is this a good career? how hard is it to get jobs in this field? Are there any other ones that i should know of? All I want is a career that will let me get a job at night, that wont take me too long to get, and that will pay descent.
I live in Houston, TX, are there any schools out of HCCS that might offer these type of classes in an affordable way?
Thank you
