dependent variable
Chat with our AI personalities
In any (well designed) experiment, there is one variable that the experimenter can control that affects one (or more) variables. The variable that the experimenter changes is called the independent variable. On the other hand, the other variable is dependent on the other for its change. Therefore, it is the "dependent variable."
If there is one variable. Then put each variable equal to zero and then solve for the other variable.
The general idea is to solve one of the equations for one variable - in terms of the other variable or variables. Then you can substitute the entire expression into another equation or other equations; as a result, if it works you should end up having one less equation, with one less variable.
