A student was measuring the height of plants grown with different types of fertilizer or with plain water. He took his measurements using inches, then realized that he needed to use metric units, so he converted his measurements from inches to centimeters. What is the independent variable in this experiment

Respuesta :

Using variable concepts, it is found that the independent variable in this experiment is the measurement in inches.

What is the relation between a function and the dependent and independent variables?

  • A function has the following format: [tex]y = f(x)[/tex].
  • In which each value of y is a function of one value of x, and thus, x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.
  • That is, the input of the function is the independent variable and the output is the dependent variable.

In this problem:

  • The input is the measurement in inches, hence being the independent variable.
  • The output is the measurement in centimeters, hence being the dependent variable.
