What is the manipulating variable the dependent variable or the independent variable?
The independent variable.
If doubling the manipulating variable results in a doubling of the responding variable the relationship between the variables is a?
This would indicate that there is a linear relationship between manipulating and responding variables.
What reduces an equation that has two variables to an equation that has one variable. It is then possible to find the solution for this variable.?
substitution
What is the first step to solving for x?
That depends on the specific equation. The general idea is to "isolate" the variable, for example "x", manipulating the equation in such a way that all terms that contain "x" are on the left, and all terms that don't contain it, are on the right.
What does dependant variable mean?
See link for the Wikipedia article. The dependent variable is sometimes called response variable, or outcome variable. During what year of school, K thru 12, do kids experience the greatest average change in height (or weight)? You are "manipulating" what year of school a child is in. You aren't making any changes on this-- this is just your independent variable. You are going to measure height change for each child, so a starting and ending measure is needed. Height is the dependent variable.
What is the manipulating variable the dependent variable or the independent variable?
The independent variable.
If doubling the manipulating variable results in a doubling of the responding variable the relationship between the variables is a?
This would indicate that there is a linear relationship between manipulating and responding variables.
Why is important to control variables in an experiment?
So that you can know what is the manipulating variable, the controlling variable, and the responding variable! To control the variables!
What can an experiment do in psychology apex?
manipulating one variable to determine if changes in one
What is the role of responding variable in a controlled experiment?
it is basically asking what the definition of responding variable is and the book says, The variable that changes because of the manipulated variable is the responding variable.
What is the manipulating factor?
The independent variable is also known as the manipulated variable. This is the factor manipulated by the experimenter, and it produces one or more results, known as dependent variables.
How do you pick out independent variables and dependent variables?
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.
What is the scientific meaning of respond variable?
The respond variable in an experiment is the variable that changes as a result of manipulating the experimental variable. It is more commonly called the dependent variable. For example, in an experiment designed to determine whether fertilizer will increase the growth of plants, the respond variable would be the growth of the plants.
How does the manipulation of an independent variable during a scientific experiment allow a scientist to find a cause-and-effect relationship between variables?
The independent variable, or manipulating variable always affect the outcome of a dependent, or responsive, variable. For example, i have a fire going, and i want to put it out. I could use a range of materials. The range of materials is the independent variable, while the fire going out or not is the dependent variable. This shows a cause and effect.
Help me find a science project that can be changed in the experiment the experiment must involve manipulating a variable through trials?

Is temperature a dependent variable?
yes. the independent variable is what you're testing. it can be a dependent variable depending on the experiment, however it could just as easily be the control if you keep it the same, or the independent if it is the variable you are manipulating rather than measuring. again it all depends on the experiment
What are manipulated variable and responding variable?
the manipulated variable is the part of the experiment that is changed. the dependent variable is the part of the experiment that does not get changed(stays the same throughout the experiment), and the scientist use it to record the data.
