I do it by using an "if/then" statement. The variable behind the "if" statement is the independent variable. The variable behind the "then" statement is the dependent variable.
Example: y = 3x3 + 4x2 - 6x +1
So if you tried "if y = 2", you're still stuck on your "then" statement. You don't really know what x is, do you?
But if you try "if x = 1", then you can determine right away that y = 2.
So x is your independent variable and y is your dependent variable.

What is the differecnce between independent variables and dependent variables?
Every time the independent variables change, the dependent variables change.Dependent variables cannot change if the independent variables didn't change.
13 What is the relation between dependent and independent variables?
Independent variables are those that you change in an experiment. Dependent variables are the ones that you measure in an experiment. Dependent variables are influenced by the independent variables that you change, so they are dependent upon the independent variable. Generally, experiments should have only one independent variable.
Which changes dependent or independent variables?
Independent changes; the dependent variable is what you will measure.
What are independent variables and dependent variables in math?
Independent variables are the input value of a function (usually x) and dependent variables are the output value of the function (usually y).
The difference between the independent and dependent variables?
Independent variables are variables that can be changed in an experiment, while dependent variables are variables that change as a result of an experiment. In other words, independent variables are what you change, and dependent variables are the results of the experiment.
