In most cases, x is independent and y is dependent. That is, you choose the value of x, but this x-value will decide the corresponding y-value.

A variable that causes change in another variable is called what?
If x causes changes in y, for example 23x3 =y then x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
Which is the dependent variable x or y?
The standard notation is to make y the dependent variable in linear regression.
What is the variable used to predict another variable called?
It is called the independent variable. For example if you are trying to find y: y = x+1 X is the independent variable, and Y is the dependent variable. The value of Y, depends on the value of X.
What is the output of a function a variable whose value depends on the input or independent variable?
the output variable is called the dependent variable. For example the function y = f(x) = 3x here x is independent and y is dependent; y changes when you change x
How can you tell if a table of values represents a function?
If all the values of the "independent" variable (x) are different then it is a function.If there are any repeats of the independent variable, the corresponding dependent variable, y, must be the same.If all the values of the "independent" variable (x) are different then it is a function.If there are any repeats of the independent variable, the corresponding dependent variable, y, must be the same.If all the values of the "independent" variable (x) are different then it is a function.If there are any repeats of the independent variable, the corresponding dependent variable, y, must be the same.If all the values of the "independent" variable (x) are different then it is a function.If there are any repeats of the independent variable, the corresponding dependent variable, y, must be the same.
A sentence with the word dependent variable?
"If y=2x, then x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable." Also, " If x=y/2 then y is the independent variable and x is the dependent variable". Also, "The dependent variable is the one variable which is found by giving values to all the independent variables"
Is the y axis the dependent variable?
Yes the y-axis is the dependent variable where y is a function of x the independent variable.
A variable that causes change in another variable is called what?
If x causes changes in y, for example 23x3 =y then x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
Differentiate the dependent from independent variable?
Say y = x2 y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable.
Which axis does the dependent variable go on?
the y-axis is the dependent variable and the x-axis is the independent variable.
Where is the independent variable and the dependent variable on the line graph?
The dependent variable is on the vertical y axis and the independent on the horizontal x axis In the equation for example y = 3x then y is dependent on the independent variable x
What is a dependent and independent variable?
It depends on what you are looking at. If you want to look at changes in variable Y when a variable X is changed, then X is the independent variable and Y is the dependent. But if you want to look at changes in X which accompany changes in Y, then Y is the independent variable and X is the dependent.
Which is the dependent variable x or y?
The standard notation is to make y the dependent variable in linear regression.
What are the independent and depent variables?
You can tell which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable by changing the equation into an "if/then" statement. Example: y = 3x In this example, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. If you give me x, I will tell you y. If x = 1, then y = 3 If x = 2, then y = 6 So you give me the independent variable, and then I will be able to determine the dependent variable.
What is the factor that may change in response to the independent variable?
The dependent variable may change in response to the manipulated variable.
What is the independent variable and dependent variable in Algebra - X is and Y is?
Any variable can be declared as the independent variable, then the other would be the dependent variable. However, it is quite common to arbitrarily define y as the dependent variable - a variable that depends on x.
Where to locate the independent and dependent in y and x axis?
y is usually the dependent variable and x the independent.
