A variable is something that can take different values. These values may be qualitative (colour, gender, favourite singer etc) or quantitative. A continuous variable must be quantitative such that it can take all values between its lowest (minimum) and highest (maximum). The variable is independentif its value is not affected by the value of any other variable under consideration.
It is a continuous variable.
is mass an independent variable
An independent variable is a variable which, in the context of the experiment or the observations, can affect the dependent variable but is not affected by it. By contrast, the dependent variable is affected by changes in the independent variable. It is quite possible that there is no independent variable, as such, and each variable affects the other.
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.
yes
Yes, some of the do exist.
A categorical variable (also known as a discrete variable) is one whose range is countable; e.g. the variable answ has values [yes, no, not sure]. answ is a categorical variable with range 3.A continuous variable is one which is not categorical; e.g. weight is a continuous variable which can take any value between 0 and 1000 kg (say) for a human being.
It is a continuous variable.
Dependant variable: the variable you measure in an experiment. It changes due to external factors affecting it. It can be time taken, or distance traveled... ect. Independant variable: the variable you change in an experiment. It can be the amount of time, or concentration of a substance... ect. Generally continuous variables, though not always.
It is a continuous variable.
It is usually used to show a relationship between two variables when the independent variable is continuous.
It is a continuous variable.
Yes. It is a continuous variable. As used in probability theory, it is an example of a continuous random variable.
No, Patient's gender is not a continuous variable. It is discrete variable.
No, it is a continuous process but not a continuous variable. The magnitude of star-shine, across all stars is a continuous variable. The magnitude of a star's shine over time is a continuous variable.
ocean depth is a continuous or discrete variable?
Not continuous => Discrete variable. Continuous => Continuous variable.
