Also while I’m here, what exactly is a coefficient?
In: 4
The independent variable is what you can change, the dependent variable is what you get because of that change. The coefficient is the number attached to either variable and affects the amount of change in one variable because of the other.
Example: Y=2X. Y is the dependent variable that depends on X. X is the independent variable. The coefficient is 2 and means Y will increase by 2 every time X increases by 1.
