The manipulated variable typically goes on the independent variable axis of a graph. This is because the manipulated variable is the one that is controlled or changed by the experimenter to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
The independent variable typically goes on the x-axis, and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis.
The independent variable in the experiment is the variable that occurs on its own and does not need anything for it to change, this that is why it is Independent e.g. years, time etc So the Dependant variable is the variable that relies on the independent variable to change and is normally represented on the Y axis. For example, if you had a graph that showed the amount of miles a car travelled over a certain time, the time is always going on and wont stop so its independent. The miles travelled depended upon the time, if the time did not go on the amount of miles travelled also couldn't go on, so it was dependant on the time to change for it to change. So it is the dependant variable.
Perhaps. The x-axis is where you put the variable that you change. The y-axis is where the second variable which depends upon the first would go. If you are recording a measurement that changes every year (e.g. populations of frogs), the x-axis would be the suitable for the year because that is the variable which changes. The population of the frogs is different depending on the year. If you were measuring the year of birth of a distribution of people, the year would go on the y-axis. The year depends upon which person you choose.
It means the steepness of the line (which could actually change as you go along the line). Imagine a drawing of the outline of a hill. It starts level (flat, = zero slope) and starts to turn upwards with increasing slope, flattens off at the top (zero slope there) and then goes on with increasing negative slope as you continue down the other side. So the lines on graphs are described in a simliar way. The value of the slope is calculate by the small distance you go up or down for a small distance traveled sideways, divided by that small distance sideways.
No, typically in a scatter plot, the independent variable goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. So in this case, mass would go on the x-axis and density on the y-axis.
In a graph, the manipulated variable, also known as the independent variable, is typically plotted on the x-axis (horizontal axis). The responding variable, or dependent variable, is plotted on the y-axis (vertical axis). This arrangement helps to visually demonstrate how changes in the independent variable affect the dependent variable.
The manipulated variable, also known as the independent variable, is typically plotted along the x-axis of a graph. This variable is controlled by the experimenter and is used to observe its effect on the responding variable, which is usually plotted on the y-axis.
dependent variable always go on y.axis on the graph.
Usually on the horizontal axis.
In principle, wherever you want. However, it is customary to place the independent variable on the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable on the vertical axis.
The independent variable goes on the x-axis while the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. :)
The independent variable typically goes on the x-axis, and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis.
When creating a graph, the x-axis typically represents the independent variable, which is the variable that you manipulate or control. It usually displays values in a logical order, such as time intervals or categories. The y-axis, in contrast, represents the dependent variable, showing the outcomes that depend on the values of the independent variable. Always label both axes clearly to ensure the graph is easily understood.
Any variable that you like. If you have one independent variable and one dependent, then by convention, the independent one would go on the x-axis.
In a graph, the independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis, while the dependent variable is placed on the y-axis. The independent variable is the one you manipulate or control, whereas the dependent variable is the outcome that you measure. For example, if you're studying how time affects temperature, time would go on the x-axis and temperature on the y-axis. Always consider the relationship you want to illustrate when determining the axis placement.
a simple 2d xy line graph has only the possibility for 2 different variables (x and y). for a 3 variable graph you would have to go into a 3d xyz graph with each variable as x, y and z. it is possible to fit a line to this but for an easier analysis it is better to analyse the variables in pairs.
Amongst polynomial graphs, it is when the coefficient of the highest power of the variable (x) is negative.
