When a relationship is graphed on a Cartesian coordinate system what represents the independent variable?
In the Cartesian plane, the independent variable, if any, is usually plotted on the x-axis.
What does the horizontal line on a graph mean?
It's known as the X-axis. Most of the time used for the Independent Variable. Also used for the run (if on a Cartesian Plane) if doing slope. It does not have a Direct Definition, but is called the X-axis.
Which variable is the y-axis of a graph?
The y-axis is the vertical line that is perpendicular to the horizontal line of the x-axis on the Cartesian plane
Previous Next Help Exit On a graph where is the independent variable placed?
The independent variable is always on the x-axis of a coordinate plane. The dependent variable is always on the y-axis. This is true because y always depends on x.
Why is the coordinate plane sometimes called the Cartesian?
x-y plane

What variable precedes the other when thinking of independent and dependent variables?
The independent variable is named first. In the Cartesian plane, this means you write (X, Y).
When a relationship is graphed on a Cartesian coordinate system what value is usually measured by the x axis?
independent variable.
Is x on a coordinate plane vertical?
The independent variable, or the x-value, is horizontal.
What does the horizontal line on a graph mean?
It's known as the X-axis. Most of the time used for the Independent Variable. Also used for the run (if on a Cartesian Plane) if doing slope. It does not have a Direct Definition, but is called the X-axis.
How do you graph nonlinear equations?
Select a number of different values for the independent variable (usually x). For each x, calculate the value of the dependent variable using the nonlinear equation. Call these f(x). On a Cartesian plane, mark the points whose coordinates are(x,f(x)) and join them by a smooth curve.
What do you call on the horizontal line in the Cartesian plane?
The horizontal line in the Cartesian plane is called the x-axis or x-coordinate.
Which variable is the y-axis of a graph?
The y-axis is the vertical line that is perpendicular to the horizontal line of the x-axis on the Cartesian plane
What is the abscissa of a point on the x-axis?
The 'abscissa' is the x coordinate on the Cartesian plane and the 'ordinate' is the y coordinate on the Cartesian plane
