What does dependent variable and independent variable mean in math?
An independent variable is a variable that isn't affected by something else. A dependent variable is a variable that's affected by changes in the independent variable.
The input variable is called the what variable?
The independent variable. The output variable is dependent on this variable's value and so is called the dependent variable.
What is the difference between dependent and independent variables?
The independent variable is the variable being manipulated in the experiment in order to show the effect on the dependent variable. It is also called the experimental variable.The dependent variable is the variable being observed in the experiment. Changes in the dependent variable as a result of changes in the independent variable are observed, which is the purpose of the experiment. Dependent variable is also called the response variable.
What is it called when the independent variable comes before the dependent variable?
An antecedent variable is one that comes before the dependent variable. They stand by themselves, thus are independent.
What variable depends on or responds to 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.
