Question

The distance travelled, d, and the speed, how do u identify the dependent variable and the independent variable In each situation??

Answer 1

• Distance travelled - Independent Variable

,

• Speed - Dependent Variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from point A to point B does not change no matter what.

Distance does not depend on any other factor. It is an Independent Variable.

Speed on the other hand is a function of the distance travelled and time taken.

This means that Speed is dependent on time and distance. It is a dependent variable.
