Yes, and the Y-Axis holds the dependent variable.

Usually, but not always. There may be no independent variable - they may be mutually dependent.

What variable is plotted on the y-axis?
The independent variable goes on the x axis. This is the variable that is controlled and changed by the experimenter. The dependent variable goes on the y axis. This is the variable that is measured. For instance, if we were plotting a graph of the speed of a ball bearing for different gradient slopes, we would put the gradient of the slopes on the x axis, and the speed of the ball bearing on the y axis.
Manipulated variable is also known as?
The manipulated variable is your independent variable. This gets plotted along the x-axis on a graph, and your dependent variable gets plotted along the y axis. Example- think of a velocity-time graph (physics), or a dose-response graph (pharmacology). The variable you are able to control (like time or dose) is your manipulated variable, and the variable whose value is contingent on how you manipulate the first is your dependent variable (drug response etc.)
The responding variable is displayed on what axis?
By convention, the variable that is changed (the independent variable) is displayed along the horizontal or x-axis. The variable that is measured (the dependent variable) is plotted along the vertical or y-axis. A responding variable is a dependent variable and would go along the y axis
On the distance vs time graph time is represented on the x-axis as the?
Time is on the x-axis as it is the independent variable. The distance is the dependent variable as the distance travelled depends on how long the journey has been going. :)
Will the independent variable will be found on the x-axis while the dependent variable will be found on the y-axis?
the independent variable is on the y-axis
In a line graph which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable?
The independent variable is plotted on the horizontal axis, or x axis. The dependent variable, or response variable is plotted on the vertical axis, or y axis.
Where are the Dependent and independent variable placed on a graph?
Dependent variable take on X-axis and independent variable take on Y-axis in a graph.
On which axis of a graph should the independent variable be graphed?
the independent variable goes on the x-axis the dependent goes on the y-axis
What axis would you graph the dependent variable?
In most cases, the y axisx axis for independent
Where On a line graph the dependent variable is plotted on what axis?
The dependent variable is usually plotted on the "y" or ordinal axis.
What variable is placed in the y axis or vertical axis?
which is considered as dependent on the variable on x axis which is considered as independent variable in the plotting of graph
Where does the manipulated variable go on a graph?
The independent variable is usually on the bottom, running horizontally. The dependent variable is usually vertical, on the left of the graph.
How is the dependent and independent variable of an experiment displayed on a graph?
The Independent variable is placed on the x-axis and the dependent variable is placed on the y- axis
What do you graph on the vertical axis of a graph?
If you are graphing the results of an experiment, the dependent variable is on the vertical, or y-axis, and the independent variable is on the horizontal axis, or x-axis.
What are the main components of a graph?
The x-axis, which is the dependent variable, and the y-axis, which is the independent variable.
Which is the dependent variable on a graph?
That depends a lot on what the graph is illustrating. However, generally, the depended variable will be on the x-axis (the horizontal axis).
When constructing a graph which variable goes on which axis?
The independent variable goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis.
