Which variable goes on the x axis and why?
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.

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 detertmine which variable goes on the y-axis?
The variable that goes on the y axis is the dependent variable. This is the one that you measure, and do not control. The variable that goes on the x axis is the independent variable. This is the one that you control and change throughout the experiment. No other variables feature on the graph.
What variable goes on the y axis of a motion graph?
Distance from some fixed point.
How is the dependent and independent variable displayed on a graph?
dependent is X and independent is Y so the axis (line) that goes horizontal (right to left) is X and has the dependent variable. the axis that goes vertically (up and down) is the Y axis and has the independent variable/
