If x depends on a, b and c, then x is the dependent variable, and a, b, and c are the independent variables - you can vary them at will, and x depends on them. Often it appears on the right hand side of an equation, such as x = a +b + 2/c, showing how x depends on the independent variables.
independent variable- constants- dependent variable an independent variable is the one to changeand the constants is what u do nuthin to and the dependent variable is what u are trying to find out
The type of tread is the independent variable and the braking distance is the dependent variable.
Yes 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.
Let's say you wanted to find out how you mother would react if you got an F on a quiz. Your grade is the independent variable. Your mother's reaction is the dependent variable.
If I am not mistaken, the question should be "What is an independent variable?" The answer is this: An independent variable is a variable whose results are independent of all the other variables measured in the data sets/experiment. For an exaggerated example, if one were to perform Van de Graff Machine experiment where the values measured are Static Energy, Time, and The Number of Stars Present in the Sky, one would be likely to find the Statics Energy and Time would have a direct relationship whereas The Number of Stars Present in the Sky would have no relationship to Static Energy or Time.
In a data table, the independent variable is typically found in the first column or along the top row, depending on the table's format. It is the variable that is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable, which is measured or observed, usually appears in the subsequent columns or rows. This arrangement helps to clearly show the relationship between the independent and dependent variables.
In a data table, the dependent variable is typically found in the column that represents the outcome or response that is being measured or predicted. It is usually located to the right of the independent variable columns, which contain the factors or conditions that are manipulated or observed to see their effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable's values change in response to variations in the independent variables.
To find the rate of change on a table: the input is X and the output is Y (the left side is X and the right is Y). The formula for the rate of change is: Change of the dependent variable over change of independent variable or y over x. ^^^ I understood NONE of that...
An Independent variable is what you control; you decide the focus of your experiment and what you control on the independent variable. Dependent variable is what you want to look at or find results for; you decide what you want to see from manipulating your independent variable.
Measure them!
you choose the independent variable, for example to see if aspirin helps bee stings, you choose whether or not to put it on. Aspirin is the independent variable, probability is not involved.

If you are doing an experiment to find colour's effect on emotions, the coulour would be the independent variable because it is what you are controlling, and the emotions would be the dependent variable because they are the results.

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.
An independent variable doesn't depend on anything else in the equation. YOU get to decide what it is, and it can be whatever you want. That's why it's called "independent" ... the only thing it depends on is YOUR whim.
It is called the independent variable. For example if you are trying to find y: y = x+1 X is the independent variable, and Y is the dependent variable. The value of Y, depends on the value of X.
