On a normal graph where points are plotted in algebra, the distances for X are along the horizontal line (sideways) and the distance for Y is along the vertical line (points up and down).
Example : If the point (x,y) is (2,0), the point is directly on the horizontal axis, 2 units to the right.

In an x-y graph, 'x' has two meanings. Firstly, it can represent a variable whose value can be clearly marked in the horizontal axis. 'x' is the set of numbers displayed on the horizontal axis and implicitly outside the graph too. For example, in the equation 'y=ax+b', x represents a variable. Secondly, it can represent a solution or a specific number of the variable above. For example, when you say 'y=2 when x=3' on the curve, 'x' represents a specify number marked on the horizontal axis. You can interpret which one does the author mean.
Normally x is the horizontal axis and y is the vertical axis
The x-axis is time and the y-axis is velocity.
Given X:Y, where X and Y are the integers of your ratio, divide both sides by Y. Then you'll have: (X / Y) : (Y / Y) Recognizing that an integer divided by itself is equal to one, (Y / Y) = 1 Finally, you are left with your solution of (X / Y) : 1 Given X:Y, where X and Y are the integers of your ratio, divide both sides by Y. Then you'll have: (X / Y) : (Y / Y) Recognizing that an integer divided by itself is equal to one, (Y / Y) = 1 Finally, you are left with your solution of (X / Y) : 1
This is how you change slope-intercept to standard form. y=ax+b subtract (ax) from both sides -ax+y=b Make sure the coefficient of x is positive by multiplying through by -1. If "a" is a fraction then multiply through by the denominator. Example: y=1/2 x +5 -1/2 x + y=5 1/2 x - y=-5 x-2y=-10
