independent variable
/,ɪndɪ'pɛndənt_'vɜriəbəl/
Definition that contains independent variable
- limit the mathematical value toward which a function goes as the independent variable approaches infinity
- argument a variable in a logical or mathematical expression whose value determines the dependent variable; if f(x)=y, x is the independent variable
- factor an independent variable in statistics
- domain (mathematics) the set of values of the independent variable for which a function is defined
- exponential a function in which an independent variable appears as an exponent
- domain of a function (mathematics) the set of values of the independent variable for which a function is defined
- method of fluxions the part of calculus that deals with the variation of a function with respect to changes in the independent variable (or variables) by means of the concepts of derivative and differential
- exponential function a function in which an independent variable appears as an exponent
- point of accumulation the mathematical value toward which a function goes as the independent variable approaches infinity
- dependent variable (statistics) a variable in a logical or mathematical expression whose value depends on the independent variable
