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.


Which component in a graph indicated an independent factor?

The x-axis of a graph is always your independent variable and the y-axis is the dependent variable. The independent variable is so called because it can stand alone as data and does not depend on other information to make sense.


When there is a curved line on a graph what type of relationship there is between the dependent variable and the independent variable?

Well, it's a non-linear relationship. It could be inverse, or quadratic, or many other things.


Does bar graph show frequency?

It can. The most common type of bar graph is a frequency bar graph in which values of a variable (typically a categorical variable such as type of vehicle or college major) are on the x-axis (abscissa) and frequency (as in how many vehicles or people have that value) is on the y-axis (ordinate). But there are many other types of bar graphs so although they likely show frequency, they may not. Check the label on the y-axis to find out.


What are the disadvantages of a stacked bar graph?

You can only make a stacked bar graph if one of the groups is always smaller than the other.Otherwise one bar might go right over the other one.* * * * *The above disadvantage does not apply to stacked bars where the bar for each variable is stacked on top of other bars. The main disadvantage is that it becomes increasingly difficult to see changes in all but the variable that is at the bottom of the stack (and so has a fixed bottom line).

What relationship does a linear graph shows?

A linear graph shows a linear equation in which the value of one variable depends on the value of the other variable.


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 is the variable that depends on the value of the other variable?

dependent variable


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.


Which graph is used to show change in a given variable when a second variable is changed?

A line graph is typically used to show the relationship between two variables and how one variable changes when the other variable is changed. The x-axis represents one variable and the y-axis represents the other variable. Lines connecting data points show how the variable being measured changes as the other variable changes.

What is depent variable?

A dependent variable is something that depends on other factors. It is what gets measured and what is affected during an experiment. Without an independent variable there can be no dependent variable.


How can you find coordinates on a line graph?

Select any value for one of the variables in the graph and solve the equation to get the other variable.


What is the variable you can change to see how it affects another variable?

The independent variable. If it changes the other variable, then the other variable depends on it and consequently is the "dependent variable".
