What does responding variable mean? - Miscellaneous

FROM THE WEB:
Responding variables can be measured (like height, weight or length) or they can be observed (like emotions, color or taste). You must be able to either observe or measure these changes in order to call a variable a responding variable, so that's something to bear in mind when designing your project

1. Dependent Variable: A dependent variable is what you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment. The dependent variable responds to the independent variable. It is called dependentbecause it "depends" on the independent variable.

The variable that varies independently of any other. The variable that you will be setting in order to measure what happens to some other variable quantity.

Independent means that it does not depend on, does not rely on, is not affected by anything. A dependent variable is a variable is affected by some other variable. If. the independent variable happens to change its value, the dependent variable must comply and change also according to the rule that connects the two variables.
An example of independent variable is time. It runs its course, not affected by anything else.
Maybe a money example will be more transparent.
Suppose you have a part-time job to support you in your studies. In a part-time job, the number of weekly work hours is not fixed in advance. Some weeks you are relatively free and can work more hours. Other weeks you have exams and can't do as much.

Let us consider the situation: your weekly salary. You understand that your weekly salary will vary in relation to the total number of hours you work during a given week. The more you work, the more you earn. The less you work, the less you earn.
Clearly there is a link between the number of work hours, and the weekly salary. You have two quantities that vary from week to week. They vary: so they are called variables (variable= capable of varying/changing its value).
The two variables are x= number of hours worked in a given week, and y= weekly salary earned in the same given week.
You and only you can decide of your own free will on the number of hours you will work that week. However, once you choose/decide how many hours you will work, your salary is calculated according to a set rule your boss and yourself had agreed to.
Of the two variables in the situation describing you weekly salary, the number x of hours worked is the independent variable. The weekly salary y is the dependent variable: the amount of money you get depends on/ is decided by the number of hours you worked.

Please use a dictionary to see the meaning of the verb to depend on, and the adjectives dependent, independent.

An independent variable is the variable you have control over, to help guide your test.

When conducting an experiment, a researcher usually has a dependent and independent variable. The independent variable is the variable that can be changed or manipulated (think of it as a cause). The dependent variable is the variable that depends on the independent variable (think effect).

For example, if you wanted to test whether practice improves an athlete's performance (lets say number of touchdowns):

• Practicing (or not) is what you can manipulate. It is the independent variable.
• Number of touchdowns is the dependent variable. The results depend on whether or not the athlete practiced.

If it shows up on the display, it means the calculator is standing by for input of a variable name to recall the variable's value. If you mean the key, that's the key used to recall a variable from memory.
