How would you define what a dependent variable and independent variable are?

Answer 1

• Independent variables answer the question "What do I change?"
• Dependent variables answer the question "What do I observe?"
• Controlled variables answer the question "What do I keep the same?"

Answer 2

The independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the researcher in an experiment. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured or observed as a result of changes in the independent variable. In other words, changes in the independent variable are expected to cause changes in the dependent variable.

Answer 3

An independent variable is a variable in an experiment that the researchers control (i.e. which experimental group someone goes into/who gets what drug etc.). The dependent variable in a study is what's being measured (i.e. the effect a frug has on a person).

Answer 4

Independent variable (MOST OFTEN, x): The number/value/amount that you can change, and will change the "dependent variable" if it is changed. Dependent variable (MOST OFTEN, y): It "depends" on the independent variable to change. Simply put, Change x, y will change.

Answer 5

Independent variable is the subtance of whatever you are experimenting with and researching and the finding are the dependent variable
