Answer: The dependent variable is the Y axis of a graph, or the side of the graph that is vertical. The independent variable is the X axis of a graph, or the side of the graph that is horizontal. Domain is the input of a mathematical function, and the range is the output!
range is the difference between the largest and smaller; “ To find the range, first order the data from least to greatest. Then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the set.”
domain is the set of all possible x-values which will make the function able to work and will output real y-values. You must remember that in a function x can NEVER have more than one output (y)
“A independent variable is a variable (often denoted by x ) whose variation does not depend on that of another”. The independent variable is the variable the experimenter changes or controls and is assumed to have a direct effect on the dependent variable
“A dependent variable is a variable (often denoted by y ) whose value depends on that of another.” The dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in an experiment, and is 'dependent' on the independent variable.
We have to isolate b to be alone. Soooo first we divide both sides by 6
-81 = b6 ÷6 = ÷6 The right side cancels out and gets the b alone. While we solve the right side of the equal sign. -81 ÷ 6 = -13.5 So this means we isolated b alone! b = -13.5
