An independent variable is the variable which you change in an experiment. you can only have 1 variable that can change in an experiment and more than one independent variable will result in an unfair experiment

It is a variable that doesn't depend on anything.

For eg. if we have a function f(x)=y we are saying that y is a function in x; y depends on x.

y=x+3

here, we can vary x and get a corresponding value of y. Here, x is independent. y is dependent.

The variation of an independent variable does not depend on another variable. It is the variable that you can change and have control over in an experiment.
