experimental variable?
An independent variable is a variable which stands independent and is unaffected by other variables. A dependent variable is a variable which is a response to the independent variable, and is usually the factor that is being tested in an experiment.
a DEPENDENT variable is one of the two variables in a relationship.its value depends on the other variable witch is called the independent variable.the INDEPENDENT variable is one of the two variables in a relationship . its value determines the value of the other variable called the independent variable.
Changes in the independent variable are independent of changes in any other variable,
Absolutely, the thermometer is independent of any other measuring device, therefore the actual temperature is dependent on the reading that is taken off the thermometer.
If you do not then it is harder to determine whether the changes in your dependent variable are due to differences in independent variables or other variables. However, sometimes it is not possible and good experimental design is required to permit these estimates.
A dependent variable depends on the other factors while an independent variable does not depend on the other factors.
An independent variable is a variable which, in the context of the experiment or the observations, can affect the dependent variable but is not affected by it. By contrast, the dependent variable is affected by changes in the independent variable. It is quite possible that there is no independent variable, as such, and each variable affects the other.
Independent variables are controlled or manipulated by the researcher to determine their effect on the dependent variable. Dependent variables, on the other hand, are the outcome or response that is measured in an experiment. The independent variable causes a change in the dependent variable.
So no other variables influence your results.
An independent variable is a variable which stands independent and is unaffected by other variables. A dependent variable is a variable which is a response to the independent variable, and is usually the factor that is being tested in an experiment.
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.
The independent variable causes changes in the dependent variable; the dependent variable is contingent on the manipulations of the independent variable.
The Dependent Variable (Y).The dependent variable. When two variables have a relationship with each other (independent and dependent), it is called a function. Usually, the independent variable is x and the dependent variable is y, although this can be switched around depending on the data.
A dependent variable is one in whose experimental or analytical value is determined by the value of the independent variable. An independent variable is not determined by any other variable, but rather is an input value. For example in the equation y = 3x y is dependent and determined by the value of the independent variable x
the dependent variable is the y-value. the dependent variable means it relys on another variable for its answer. without the other variable this variable would not exist. the independent variable is the x-value. the independent variable can exist on its own without the dependent variable. i mention x-values and y-values... this is only if you are using an x and y value for your application. there are other applications... like speed... where the dependent variable for speed would be time and the independent variable for speed would be distance. and for acceleration the dependent variable would be speed and the independent variable would be distance.
Any variable can be declared as the independent variable, then the other would be the dependent variable. However, it is quite common to arbitrarily define y as the dependent variable - a variable that depends on x.
The independent variable is the variable that is purposely changed or manipulated by the researcher. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured or observed as a result of changes in the independent variable. In other words, the independent variable causes a change in the dependent variable.
