What does line graph show?
Line graphs show the relationship between the change in one variable to the change in another. (change) On a computer, a line graph shows lots of pixels.
What does the slope mean on a line graph?
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
What does a line graph show?
A line graph shows information that grows (raises) over a certain time.... Example: Growth of a plant within a year (timelaps)
Where are the dependent and independent variables located on a graph explain with example?
The independent variable (such as time) is places on the x-axis of a graph. Always place the things that will never change on the x-axis. The dependent variable is then placed on the y-axis. The difference between the independent and dependent variable is that the independent variable in an experient does not change it is what stays constent, it is what is used to measure the dependent variable. On the other hand the dependent variable is what the experiment is testing for and what depends on the independent variable.
Where does the dependent variable always go on the graph?
dependent variable always go on y.axis on the graph.
In an experiment what are the controlled variables?
The variable YOU change which will in turn effect another variable (the dependent variable). The controlled variable is plotted on the x - axis of a graph.
What does line graph show?
Line graphs show the relationship between the change in one variable to the change in another. (change) On a computer, a line graph shows lots of pixels.
On a graph of two variables which is the variable that causes changes in the other?
The independent variable causes changes in the dependent variable; the dependent variable is contingent on the manipulations of the independent variable.
In a graph showing temperature change of material over timetemperature change is the?
dependent variable
What does the slope mean on a line graph?
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
Which of these is most useful for representing how one variable influence another variable?
a line graph
Most useful for representing how one variable influences another variable?
A line graph is most useful for representing how one variable influences another variable.
What is the line called on a line graph that is the ratio of the change in the y-variable to the corresponding change in the x-variable?
The rise and the run.
On a line graph the ratio of the change in the y variable to the corresponding change in the x variable is called a lines what?
The rise and the run.
Does the independent variable on a graph cause the change in an experimental system?
No. It will only do that if the other variable is dependent on it.
What info does the slope of a graph provide?
The rate of change in the variable plotted on the y axis for a unit change in the variable on the x axis.
If a linear graph has a negative slope what can you say about the dependent variable?
It does not change.
