​(a) Which variable is likely the explanatory variable and which is the response​ variable?
 
 
A.
The explanatory variable is commute time and the response variable is the​ well-being score because​ well-being score affects the commute time score.
 
B.
The explanatory variable is the​ well-being score and the response variable is commute time because​ well-being score affects the commute time.
 
C.
The explanatory variable is commute time and the response variable is the​ well-being score because commute time affects the​ well-being score.
 
D.
The explanatory variable is the​ well-being score and the response variable is commute time because commute time affects the​ well-being score.
