"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"
the water in the experiment was the dependent variable in this situation
The dependent variable is the factor being measured or observed in an experiment, and its value is dependent on the independent variable.
In a study examining the relationship between exercise and weight loss, the dependent variable would be the amount of weight lost by participants.
You could say, "Today in our science experiment we had to figure out what the dependent variable was"

yes
Dependent Variable - Note the root word DEPEND. So a dependent variable is when on variable depends on/affects the other.
The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable, so when the independent variable changes, so does the dependent variable.
dependent variable
is dependent on the independent variable
Yes, the dependent variable is the variable which is measured.
The word you are looking for is "independent variable." This is the variable that is intentionally changed or manipulated by the researcher during an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
