Question
A(n) _____________ variable depends on or is changed by another variable.
- Single
- a
Dependent
- Independent
- Double
Hint:
In a given equation, the 2 variables viz. x & y can be bifurcated into Independent variable and dependent variable.
Generally, Independent variables are represented on the x-axis i.e. horizontal axis and Dependent variables are represented on the y-axis i.e. verticle axis.
The correct answer is: a
Dependent
TO FIND-
Which variable depends on or is changed by another variable.
SOLUTION-
The independent variable can be referred to as the cause i.e. Its value is independent (does not change as per the other variables) of other variables. The dependent variable can be referred to as the effect. Its value depends on changes in the independent variable.
Hence, A Dependent variable depends on or is changed by another (Independent) variable.
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'a' i.e. 'Dependent' is the correct answer to the given question.
