Best Answer

It is only on the Y-axis if it is a dependent variable. However that only applies if the Y-axis is the dependent variable. Pressure could be on the X-axis if it were a situation where pressure would be deemed an independent variable i.e. saturation temperatures based on pressures. the fact that it is pressure is not enough to deem it a dependent variable. other factors must be taken into account

What is the equation for y equals 3?

The equation is [ y = 3 ]. Its solution is y=3 . You get a straight line (parallel to the x-axis) that passes through only the y-axis, and it crosses the y-axis at (0,3). For all values of x, the value of y is 3


How does a reflection across the y axis change the coordinates of a point?

Reflection across the y-axis changes the sign of the x - coordinate only, that is, (x, y) becomes (-x, y).

If the graph of a linear equation has one point that is both the x and they y intercepts what is that point and why?

If a point is on both the x-axis and the y-axis, then it must be in the only point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect. The point where they intersect is (0,0) which is called the origin.


What does y axis mean?

The y-axis is the vertical axis on a graph.


What does it mean when the x coordinate or y coordinate of a point is 0?

When the X - Coordinate is 0: The point lies on Y - Axis. Eg. (0,3) lies on Y - Axis Eg. (0,5) lies on Y - Axis Eg. (0,1) lies on Y - Axis When the Y - Coordinate is 0: The point lies on X - Axis. Eg. (2,0) lies on X - Axis Eg. (3,0) lies on X - Axis Eg. (6,0) lies on X - Axis
