The independent variable is also known as the manipulated variable.
In an experiment where you need to test different objects, the independent variable would be the different objects.

The independent variable is "independent" because its variation does not depend on the variation of another variable in the experiment/research project. The independent variable is controlled or changed only by the researcher.

∙ 16y agoI am assuming you are talking about an experiment... In an experiment , the independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed. The control group does not experience the change-nothing is done to this group. Bill Crawley, Reference Librarian, Illinois Central College

∙ 15y agoThe Independent variable in an experiment is the variable you will change. You may find it easier to remember that Independent begins with 'I' therefore it is the variable 'I' will change in the experiment.
e.g. The higher the drop height the higher the bounce of the ball will be.
in this e.g. the height from which the ball is dropped is the independent variable as you have decided to change this.
The height of the bounce is measured so this is the dependent variable and
other variables like type of rubber from which the ball is made from, surface texture of the ball, weight, volume and temperature are all controlled in the experiment, so they are all the controlled variables.
The experiment is designed by keeping these controlled variables the same whilst only changing the Independent variable.

Yes, the independent variable is the one we changed while solving any operation like graphical or algebraical because it in turn will effect our dependent variable, In graphs usually independent variable is taken on x-axis

∙ 15y agoAn independent variable is the thing that you are changing, to get different results. The different results, are the dependent variable. A controled variable is the thing that u r using.

∙ 13y agoNo the independent variable is the one you change
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoNo, actually the dependent variable changes. The independent variable does not change, or can "stand alone".

∙ 8y agoIt cannot be both in the same experiment. The independent variable is the one you change. If you pick a different independent variable you would control the first one.

Is the independent variable the one that does not change?
No, as the name Variable implies, it can and does change. Since it is 'Independent' its change is not a direct effect of the change of any other Variable. Additionally, the independent variable depends on the dependent variable.
What are independent and dependent variables?
The independent variable is also called an experimental variable. It is the variable being manipulated in the experiment in order to show the effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable is also called the response variable. It is the variable being observed in the experiment. A change in the independent variable is what causes the change (if any) in the dependent variable, which is the purpose of the experiment.
What does a control group have to do with the independent variable?
the answer to that question is the control group has nothing to do with the independent variable because a control group is some thing in your experiment that has not changed through out your experiment. And a independent variable is some thing in your experiment that you change through your experiment(s)
How many variables can be changed in an experiment?
It depends on the experiment or the category. you welcome s.a No it's the variable k.a.
Does the independent or dependent variable change?
The Independent variable is the one you control. The dependent variable is controlled by the Independent Variable.
Is the independent variable the thing that you change or that you don't change?
you DONT change
What is an independent variable dependent variable and controlled variable?
an independent variable is a thing you can change on your own. a depentent variable is a variable you depend on and a responding variable is a variable that reacts to the experiment
What is a dependent variable independent variable and a control group?
The independent variable is the thing you change, the dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent variable, it could also be referred to as the effect, and the control group is the constant, the thing that stays the same and the variable that you compare your results to.
Is the independent variable the one that does not change?
No, as the name Variable implies, it can and does change. Since it is 'Independent' its change is not a direct effect of the change of any other Variable. Additionally, the independent variable depends on the dependent variable.

What is a density independent variable?
There is no such thing as a "density independent variable".
What does a control group have to do with the independent variable?
the answer to that question is the control group has nothing to do with the independent variable because a control group is some thing in your experiment that has not changed through out your experiment. And a independent variable is some thing in your experiment that you change through your experiment(s)

What are the dependent and independent variables in the experiment?
The independent variable can be located on the x-axis, it also means its the thing in the experiment that you change. The dependent variable is located on the y-axis, and is what you are using to measure your independent variable.The independent variable is a variable that changes.The dependent variable is a variable that is measured and used for data.
Why does the dependent variable change as the independent variable changes into a linear relationship?
The independent variable is the variable that you change and manipulate in an equation. This causes the dependant variable to change.
What is the dependent and independent in a experiment?
The independent variable of an experiment is the variable that you change, and the dependent variable is the result of the independent variable.
Does the independent or dependent variable change?
The Independent variable is the one you control. The dependent variable is controlled by the Independent Variable.
