For each experiment, specify the manipulated, responding, & controlled
variables.
Two groups of students were tested to compare their speed working math problems. Each group was given the same problems. One group used calculators and the other group computed without calculators.

For each experiment, specify the manipulated, responding, & controlled
variables.
Students of different ages were given the same puzzle to assemble. The puzzle assembly time was measured.

variables.

variables.
