Is average acceleration the slop of a velocity vs time graph?

What is 'slop' ???? I think you mean 'slope' ; which means 'Gradient'. 'Slop' means a 'mess'. Please remember, correct English grammar. Yes!!! In a velocity/time graph the gradient/slope is a acceleration. On such a graph remember. The horizontal (x) axis is the time axis. The Vertical (y) axis is the velocity axis. If the line rises from left to right it is accelerating. If the line is horizontal (parallel to x - axis, but NOT co-planr), it is constant velocity. If the line falls from left to right it is deceleration(slowing down). If the line is co-planar with the time(x) axis , the object is not moving.


What does the a mean in ax plus b of a time vs distance graph where time is on the y-axis?

Usually time is on the x-axis but it is made specific here that time is on the y-axis. That being the case, a is the reciprocal of the speed. That is, the time taken to move a unit distance (as measured on the x-axis).

Which axis of a graph will always run horizontally left to the right across the page?

It is OFTEN the x axis, but not always. Sometimes it is the t-axis (for time). In basic economics it could be quantity (q), in demographics it could be age (y, for years). There are many alternatives.

What does a steep line on a distance time graph mean?

With distance on the x axis and time on the y axis a steep line would indicate a short distance traveled over a long period of time, depending on the scale of the graph.


What is x axis in economics?

Both in economics and in other areas, the horizontal axis - if that is what you mean - is quite often used for time. On the other hand, if the axis is actually labelled "x", it simply refers to an independent variable.
