n=1


a: independent variable ~
b: knob you can turn

What:

"An independent variable is like a knob you can turn - it's an adjustable thing. A dependent variable is what changes when you turn the knob. You can change the hours of study, and as a result the course grade changes. That makes the hours of study the independent variable and the course grade the dependent variable."
