The variable plotted along the horizontal (x) axis is termed the independent variable. The variable plotted along the vertical (y) axis is termed the dependent variable. Usually equations of curves are given in the form y = f(x) meaning that the y value is dependent on the x value.
The answer is a dependent variable. A variable that changes in response to another variable is called a dependent variable.
If x causes changes in y, for example 23x3 =y then x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
A dependent variable is one in whose experimental or analytical value is determined by the value of the independent variable. An independent variable is not determined by any other variable, but rather is an input value. For example in the equation y = 3x y is dependent and determined by the value of the independent variable x
The dependant variable.
