The independent variable is usually on the bottom, running horizontally. The dependent variable is usually vertical, on the left of the graph.
A manipulated variable is also called an independent variable. It is the thing in an experiment you change or manipulate. For example, if i am doing an experiment to see how water affects the growth on plants, the amount of water is the manipulated variable.
The independent variable in this case would be the passage of time or the years, as it is the variable that is being manipulated or controlled in the study to see its effect on the family average income.
what you change and dependent variable is what you measure. :) Also, generally the independent variable goes on the x axis of any given graph, while the dependent goes on the y axis (except for specific types of graph characterized by their shape, such as rate of reaction graphs in chemistry)
Manipulated variable is also known as Independent variable and is the factor that you change in an experiment. For example if you were measuring the effects of alcohol on driving ability the manipulated variable would be alcohol, either with or without alcohol.
The manipulated variable in growing plants could be the type of fertilizer used, the amount of water given, the light exposure, or the temperature of the environment. It is the variable that the researcher purposely changes to observe its effect on plant growth.
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.
A manipulated variable in a graph is the independent variable that is deliberately changed or controlled by the experimenter. It is typically plotted on the x-axis and its values are chosen by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
manipulated variable
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 is typically plotted on the x-axis of a graph. This variable is the one that is deliberately changed or controlled by the researcher in an experiment to observe its effect on the responding variable.
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 independent variable is the one which the researcher controls and manipulates. On a graph this is the 'x' axis.
The independent variable on a bar graph is the variable that is manipulated or categorized to observe its effect on the dependent variable. It is typically represented on the x-axis (horizontal axis) of the graph. For example, in a bar graph showing the sales of different products, the product categories would be the independent variable.
