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.
Bar graphs are used when graphing a qualitative independent variable, but a line graph is used when the independent variable is quantitative. Also when you are comparing quantity of objects(bar graph)
Dependent variable take on X-axis and independent variable take on Y-axis in a graph.

Independent Variable
Typically the horizontal axis represents the independent variable.
Acceleration is indicated on a speed/time graph.
The trend of a graph is the slope of any line on the graph that indicated a positive or growth factor and/or a negative or decaying factor. If the slope goes negative, the graph's line will go down thus indicating decay. If the slope becomes positive, the graph's line will go up thus indicating growth.
linear graph between an independent and independent variable
horizontial axis
A scatter graph.
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant

Dependent variable take on X-axis and independent variable take on Y-axis in a graph.
The independent variable is graphed along the x-axis.
