independent valuea value or variable that changes or can be manipulated by circumstances |
independent variablea value or variable that changes or can be manipulated by circumstances |
inductive reasoninga form of logical thinking that makes general conclusions based on specific situations, inductive reasoning takes the path of observation to generalization to conjecture |
