Where are the dependent and independent variables located on a graph explain with example?

The independent variable (such as time) is places on the x-axis of a graph. Always place the things that will never change on the x-axis. The dependent variable is then placed on the y-axis. The difference between the independent and dependent variable is that the independent variable in an experient does not change it is what stays constent, it is what is used to measure the dependent variable. On the other hand the dependent variable is what the experiment is testing for and what depends on the independent variable.


Is age an dependent variable or an independent variable?

independent


Independent and dependent?

a independent variable is a variable changed in a science experiment,and a dependent variable is the result according to the cause of the change in the independent variable.


Differentiate of dependent and independent variable?

The dependent variable depends on the independent variable for its values as for example in the straight line equation: y = 2x+1 It is y that is the dependent variable and x the independent variable.


What is a criterion variable?

A criterion variable, also known as a dependent variable, is the outcome or response that researchers aim to measure or predict in a study. It is influenced by one or more independent variables, which are manipulated or observed to determine their effect on the criterion. In statistical analysis, the relationship between the criterion variable and independent variables is often examined to understand patterns or make predictions.

What is the difference between the independent variable and the experimental variable?

the independent variable is changed, and the experimental value measure. So you control the independent variable and change it to measure the results


What is the independent variable of the activity?

When you do an experiment the variable you control is the independent variable, and the variable you measure is the dependent variable.


How do you decide the independent variable?

You choose the values of the independent variable. The dependent variable is the one you measure.


How is the independent variable and the dependent variable related?

The independent variable is that which the investigator changes, which results in the dependant variable which you then measure.


Definition of independent variable and dependat variable?

The independent variable is the variable which you change. It is not changed by any outside factors and so is independent of them.The dependent variable is the variable which is changed by the independent variable changing and which you measure. It is dependent on another variable.


What is a dependent and independent varibale?

A variable that changes and affects the measure of another variable is what?

That is known as an independent variable. The independent variable is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
