Is time always on y axis?
Time normally goes on the x-axis as it is an independent variable. However, there may be some occasions when it goes on the y-axis.
How do you graph independent and dependent variables?
Independent = input a.k.a. x-value Dependent = output a.k.a. y-value Dependent variables go on y axis. Independent variables go on x axis. Time is almost always independent and that is why it nearly always on x axis. Time doesn't depend on anything in most experiments. But many things depend on it. Those will go on the y axis. If you have an object cooling, we plot a temperature time graph. The temperature (y axis) is dependent on the time (x axis) but not the other way round. If you consider the area of a parachute and its time of flight, then time depends on the area and so time being dependent on the area goes on the y axis. So in short: the independent variable is what you can control and goes on the x- axis. the dependent variable is what results from the experiment and goes on the y-axis.
Where does the independent data go on a graph?
The independent variable goes on the x-axis while the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. :)
How do you fined the x and y intercepts and use them to graph each line?
Do you mean the axis? The y axis goes up and down while the x axis goes left and right.
Does day go on the y axis and does time go on the x axis?
No, day goes on the x axis and time goes on the y axis.
