A straight line on a graph means there is what kind of relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable.?
A straight line shows direct proportion. That means that equal changes in the independent variable always produce the same change in the dependent variable.
What is interdependent variable?
AN Interdependent variable is the Y axsis of a graph
What variable is distance on a distance-time graph?
Idependent
What variable goes first in the title of a line graph for science?
The dependent variable goes first.
Which axis holds the independent variable?
An independant variable should always be on the x-axis of a graph and the dependant variable on the y-axis.
Does a line graph show changes in the responding variable only?
No. It shows changes in the response variable against changes in the explanatory (or independent) variable(s).
Which three features describe a line graph?
.Has an x-axis and a y-axisShows how a variable changes in relation to another variableShows the independent variable on the x-axis
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.
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.)
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.
How is a scatter plot different from a line graph?
Scatter plots show how much one variable is affected by another,A graph that uses points connected by lines to show how something changes in value
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.
Could you use a line graph to show data about how body mass (the responding variable) changes with height (the manipulated variable)?
yes
Is a line graph best used when one variable causes another variable to change in value?
Sometimes
Why don't you use a circle graph to show data about how body mass changes height?
It is not a suitable form of graph. A circle graph can be used for showing the relationship between a variable and its component parts. It is not suitable for illustrating changes with height.
What are the differences between independent and dependent variables?
An independent variable is the variable you can change in an experiment. On a graph, it's on the X-axis. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. It is literally dependent on it. The dependent variable goes on the Y-axis.
