On a distance vs. time graph, time is usually the independent variable presented on the X axis in the Cartesian Coordinate System. The dependent variable would be distance, and would be presented on the Y axis.

To create a graph with an independent variable, you would typically plot the independent variable on the x-axis and the dependent variable on the y-axis. For example, if you're studying the effect of time on distance traveled, time would be the independent variable (x-axis) and distance would be the dependent variable (y-axis). You can then plot data points based on your observations and connect them to visualize the relationship between the two variables.

Distance is usually represented on the y-axis of a distance-time graph. The x-axis typically represents time.

The variable plotted along the vertical axis is the distance in the first case, speed in the second. The gradient of (the tangent to) the distance-time graph is the speed while the area under the curve of the speed-time graph is the distance.
Time is on the x-axis as it is the independent variable. The distance is the dependent variable as the distance travelled depends on how long the journey has been going. :)
A graph is constructed such that time (in hours) is the x-variable and distance (in miles) is the y-variable. If you plot the distance that a car travels on the graph traveling at a speed of 60 miles per hour, what is the slope of the graph?
Well, a letter below a graph usually labels that axis, which is usually the x-axis. In a distance vs. time graph, the letter on the y-axis is usually D for distance, and the letter on the x-axis is usually T for time. That's about the best I can tell you without seeing the graph

distance time graph is a graph traveled in a graph which shows how much we have traveled in equal period of time.
The horizontal axis usually represents the independent variable. One example is time. Time will change regardless of what problem you are analyzing with a graph. It could be seconds elapsed in a motion graph. Or it could be months, in a sales chart, for example. Distance could be another example of an independent variable. It just depends on what type of problem you are graphing.
