The independent variable is the variable that you change and manipulate in an equation. This causes the dependant variable to change.
The variable that changes due to a change in another variable is known as 'dependant variable".
The dependant variable is what you can't change, or decide, and it is affected by the independent variable. EX. If you were to see which liquid is the slowest, the independent variable would be the liquids that you can choose, and the independent variable would be how fast or slow they move, because it depends on what liquids you chose.
It measures responsiveness of a dependent variable to change in an independent variable.
