The independent variable is on the x-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.
Typically the horizontal axis represents the independent variable.

An independant variable should always be on the x-axis of a graph and the dependant variable on the y-axis.
independant variable
The independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis of a line graph. This axis is also known as the horizontal axis and represents the variable that is manipulated or controlled by the experimenter.
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.
Typically the horizontal axis represents the independent variable.
The y (vertical) axis
It is plotted on the horizontal axis.
It is plotted on the horizontal axis.
It is plotted on the horizontal axis.
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.
The independent variable typically goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis in a line graph for science.
The y-axis is the vertical line on a line graph.
