Things to Learn

  • Analyze an equation in two variables to choose an independent variable and a dependent variable.
  • Determine whether or not the equation is solved for the second variable in terms of the first variable or vice versa.
  • Use the information to determine which variable is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable.
  • Create a table by placing the independent variable in the first row or column and the dependent variable in the second row or column.
  • Compute entries in the table by choosing arbitrary values for the
    independent variable (no constraints).
  • Determine what the dependent variable must be.
