The units are whatever you make them! It helps, though if the units are the same on the x-axis (horizontal axis) as well. Unless of course you are skipping from zero to some large number before you start your graph.
Anyway, you can make each line one unit, or you can make each line 5 units, or whatever you want! Depends on what you're graphing, but usually for a straight line, you use units of 1
The y (vertical) axis
Y axis (vertical)
The label on the y-axis or vertical axis.
on a line graph, the independent variable is plotted on the horizontal x- axis, and the dependent variable is plotted on the vertical y- axis.
The major importance of a line graph is that it allows a person to visually see the relationship between two major variables. A line graph contains a vertical axis and a horizontal axis.
The y-axis is the vertical line on a line graph.
On a typical graph, the vertical line is the y-axis, they horizontal line is the x-axis.
A vertical line is a line that runs up and down. On a graph, it is either the y axis or parallel to the y axis. It is also perpendicular to the x axis.
When you graph lines or points, the cross drawn behind them, labeled with numbers and units, are the axes. The horizontal line is the x-axis, and the vertical the y-axis.
The straight horizontal line on a graph is referred to as the x-axis. The vertical line on a graph is the y-axis.
The y (vertical) axis
The x-axis is the horizontal line that correlates with the vertical y-axis.
Y axis (vertical)
the vertical Axis
A vertical number line
The name of a vertical line is simply named by the number on the x axis it is on.
X = 4 is a vertical line, 4 units to the right of the y-axis.
