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.
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.
The independent variable goes on the x-axis while the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. :)
Do you mean the axis? The y axis goes up and down while the x axis goes left and right.
An independent variable - if there is one - goes on the x- axis. There may not be an idependent variable: for example in a graph of peoples' height v weight (mass).An independent variable - if there is one - goes on the x- axis.

The x axis is horizontal; the y axis is vertical
Usually the x-axis of a bar graph shows a control range, and is plotted on the bottom of the graph. Time is a common x-axis example.
the independent variable goes on the x-axis the dependent goes on the y-axis
The independent variable goes on the horizontal (x) axis.

The independent variable goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis.

As time passes - as the graph goes more and more to the right, usually - the graph will get closer and closer to the horizontal axis.
X-axis shows increment when is goes up and y-axis show an increment when it goes further to the right side of the graph
The Y axis on graph is the line that goes UP and Down vertially
it is the y axis or part of the y axis
X-Axis goes from left to right on a graph.
