The independent variable is along the bottom or horizontal or x axis. The dependent variable is up the left hand side or vertical or y axis
I believe you meant the "independent" variable, and it is the X axis. The Y axis (the vertical one) is for the dependent variable.
If you believe that one of the variables depends on the other then the dependent variable should go on the y axis. If they are dependent on each other (or both dependent on something else) or if they are independent then do whatever you like.
If it is called the "y-axis", that means it refers to variable "y".
In any experiment there are many kinds of variables that will effect the experiment. The independent variable is the manipulation for the experiment and the dependent variable is the measure you take from that experiment. Confounding variables are things in which have an effect on the dependent variable, but were taken into account in the experimental design. For example, you want to know if Drug X has an effect on causing sleep. The experimenter must take care to design the experiment so that he can be very sure that the subjects in the study fell asleep because of the influence of his Drug X, and that the sleepiness was not caused by other factors. Those other factors would be confounding variables.
The independent variable is graphed along the x-axis.
By convention, the variable that is changed (the independent variable) is displayed along the horizontal or x-axis. The variable that is measured (the dependent variable) is plotted along the vertical or y-axis. A responding variable is a dependent variable and would go along the y axis
If there is an independent variable, then that is usually plotted along the x-axis. But there need not be one.
True
The independent variable is along the bottom or horizontal or x axis. The dependent variable is up the left hand side or vertical or y axis
Time is almost always an independent variable. Typically, independent variables are plotted along the horizontal axis.
I believe you meant the "independent" variable, and it is the X axis. The Y axis (the vertical one) is for the dependent variable.
If current is plotted on the X-axis in a graph, it will be the independent variable, meaning that changes in current will be shown along the X-axis. This can help visualize how changes in current affect other variables plotted on the Y-axis, providing insights into the relationship between current and the dependent variable.
If you believe that one of the variables depends on the other then the dependent variable should go on the y axis. If they are dependent on each other (or both dependent on something else) or if they are independent then do whatever you like.
The manipulated variable, also known as the independent variable, is typically plotted along the x-axis of a graph. This variable is controlled by the experimenter and is used to observe its effect on the responding variable, which is usually plotted on the y-axis.
If it is called the "y-axis", that means it refers to variable "y".
In most cases, yes. The X-axis typically represents the independent variable, which is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on the dependent variable represented on the Y-axis.
