Yes, an independent/dependant relationship to two things would be heat/volume when working with gas. The volume of object increases as an object gets hotter however an object does not get hotter if the volume increases therefore the volume is dependant on the heat, this makes the volume the dependant variable. Therefore the heat has to be the independent variable.
The three types of variables are: Independent: it is the one that you manipulate Dependent: the one that reacts to the changes in the independent variable and is measured in a experiment Control: all the other factors that could affect the dependent variable but are kept constant through out an experiment
As it is written, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent. But you could re-write it as x = y/23 + 30/23 and then y is the independent variable and x the dependent.
Independent variable could be the number (or spacing or size) of the laces and the dependant variable is distance. Possibly levels of the independent variable could be ranges of number of laces.
well dependent is when you are are NOT independent so in your daily life you could just have S.E.X and then that is how you become non independent
Usually, yes. Obviously, only if you have one: the two variables could be inter-dependent.
If y= 2x, then x is said to be an independent variable because you can choose what you like to calculate the dependant variable y . But someone could come along and say, Hey, I know what y is, and from his point of view he could calculate what x is, So from his point of view x would be a dependent variable and y the independent variable x=2/y. In general, the independent variables are the variables you use to calculate the answer, which is then the dependent variable.

They are the variables that you think predict some outcome (which is considered the dependent variable). So you might have a theory that gender and age predicts personal income. Gender and age are the independent variables, and income is the dependent. The choice of whether a variable is independent or dependent often is driven by the question you're trying to answer. So in many cases it's possible that the same variable could be an independent variable in one analysis, but a dependent variable in a different analysis. For example, while income was the dependent variable in the earlier example, if you were trying to predict whether a child goes to college, the parents' income might be an important independent variable in that case.
Usually, yes. Obviously, only if you have one: the two variables could be inter-dependent.
because other conditions could affect the dependent variable
The independent variable is the factor in an investigation that the scientist is changing. The dependent variable is the factor which is measured. All other variables, factors which could affect the experiment, are controlled, or kept the same. For example, in an experiment to find out how light intensity affects bean plant growth, the independent variable would be the intensity of the light. The dependent variable would be the amount the plants grew. The controlled variables would be things like the temperature, the acidity of the soil, the amount of water given, the amount of CO2 in the air; in short, anything that could affect the results.
Either. You could have carbon isotope ratios as your independent and carbon age as your dependent. or You could have the carbon age of soil samples as your independent and the artefacts that you are trying to date as the dependent.
would homelessness be a dependent variable
An independent variable is a variable that is intentionally manipulated or changed by the researcher in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable. The dependent variable, on the other hand, is the variable that is measured or observed to see how it responds to the changes made to the independent variable.
