Step-by-step explanation:

simply put, dependent variable in an experiment is the one that you are measuring, whereas independent is the one you are purposely changing. the dependent variable goes on the y axis of the graph

The dependent variable of a problem is the variable being measured. This means the dependent variable would go on the y-axis because it’s being compared to the independent variable, or x.
