Ordered variables give you more information than categoric variables
but less information than continuous variables.
An example of an ordered variable would be
small, medium or large lumps of http://wiki.answers.com/rc9-increase-surface-area.htm
An independent variable is the variable you can change in an experiment. On a graph, it's on the X-axis. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. It is literally dependent on it. The dependent variable goes on the Y-axis.
"Controlled Variable" or "Manipulated Variable"
the anwer is a variable( the thng that will change over time in the experiment
The independent variable is the one variable that you change in your experiment
Independent variable. The dependent variable is the one that is affected by the independent variable, for example-y=2x+2This is the equation of a line. X is deliberately changed to find y hence - y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.
Ordered Variable is one where you can put the data into order, bt not give it an actual number. The height of a person compared to other's height is an ordered variable.
An ordered variable is one where you can put the data into order, but not give it an actual number. The height of plants compared to each other is an ordered variable, e.g the plants growing in the woodland are taller than those on the open field.

(x,y) or (variable that cones first in the alphabet, variable that comes second in the alphabet)
The idea is to replace one variable in the equation by the first number in the ordered pair, the other variable with the second number in the ordered pair, do the calculations, and see whether the resulting expressions are indeed equal.
By convention, 'x' is almost always the independent variable, but it doesn't have to be.
On whichever variable is considered the y-variable. It would be the second element of each ordered pair of data points.
Y-axis
Any ordered pair that makes the set true
the first number in an ordered pair is the x coordinate it is one of the values that the independent variable has taken on
On whichever variable is considered the y-variable. It would be the second element of each ordered pair of data points.
