What is the independent variable?

Mathematics

Pavlova-9 [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are two types of variables we need to focus on, the first is the dependent variable, the second is the independent variable ( which is the one in question).  You asked about it in relation to mathematics, although even across the board, in science they both really mean the same thing. Here's an example, say you are taking a test, and the rubric for grading the test is 5 points (p) for every question (q) answered correctly. So given that information you can conclude that (p) is equal to 5 x the amount of questions you got right (p = 5q). The amount of points in this equation relies on how many questions you get right, you can't logically say that question (q) is equal to 5 points (p), because the questions don't depend on the points, the points depend on the amount of questions you get right. So that means since the points (p) depend on the # of questions you answered correctly, it is the dependent variable, there for by process of elimination you're independent variable is (q) since they don't rely on the points, the points rely on the questions. It all boils down to how well you can recognize this, and how complicated your question is, but hopefully this provided some insight.

The independent variable is the variable that you change every time in order to affect what you’re measuring.

The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle described is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h]

<h3>How to determine the range of speed associate to desired gas mileages</h3>

In this question we have a <em>quadratic</em> function of the <em>gas</em> mileage (g), in miles per gallon, in terms of the <em>vehicle</em> speed (v), in miles per hour. Based on the information given in the statement we must solve for v the following <em>quadratic</em> function:

g = 10 + 0.7 · v - 0.01 · v²      (1)

An effective approach consists in using a <em>graphing</em> tool, in which a <em>horizontal</em> line (g = 20) is applied on the <em>maximum desired</em> mileage such that we can determine the <em>speed</em> intervals. The <em>speed</em> intervals such that the mileage of the vehicle is 20 miles per gallon or less are: v ∈ [10 mi/h, 20 mi/h] ∪ [50 mi/h, 75 mi/h].

Suppose that 13 inches of wire costs 52 cents. At the same rate, how many inches of wire can be bought for 32 cents?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

So we have a ratio which you have specified 13:52. So we just need to get the same ratio for 13. 32/52 is how we get 32 from multiplying by 52. So now we just need to multiply it for 13 also'

13*32/52 = 8. Therefore the answer to this is 8
