On a line graph, where is the dependent variable placed?
I believe you meant the "independent" variable, and it is the X axis. The Y axis (the vertical one) is for the dependent variable.
The independent variable is typically placed on the horizontal (x) axis in a line graph for science. This variable is manipulated or controlled by the experimenter to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
The independent variable typically goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis in a line graph for science.
In the vertical direction.
If a graph shows the relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable as a straight line, it indicates a linear relationship between the two variables. This means that changes in the independent variable result in proportional changes in the dependent variable. The slope of the line represents the rate of change, while the y-intercept indicates the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.
The dependent variable is usually plotted on the "y" or ordinal axis.
A straight line on a graph indicates a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable. This means that as the independent variable changes, the dependent variable changes at a constant rate. The slope of the line represents the rate of change, while the y-intercept indicates the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.
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.
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.
It is called the dependent variable
Usually it's the y-axis.
