If a graph shows the relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable as a straight line, it indicates a linear relationship between the two variables. This means that changes in the independent variable result in proportional changes in the dependent variable. The slope of the line represents the rate of change, while the y-intercept indicates the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.
A straight line on a graph indicates a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable. This means that as the independent variable changes, the dependent variable changes at a constant rate. The slope of the line represents the rate of change, while the y-intercept indicates the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant
A scatter graph.
_linear_
Bar graphs are used when graphing a qualitative independent variable, but a line graph is used when the independent variable is quantitative. Also when you are comparing quantity of objects(bar graph)
The independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis.
Typically the horizontal axis represents the independent variable.
Independent Variable
The independent variable is on the x-axis.
Bar graphs are used when graphing a qualitative independent variable, but a line graph is used when the independent variable is quantitative. Also when you are comparing quantity of objects(bar graph)
The independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis of a line graph. This axis is also known as the horizontal axis and represents the variable that is manipulated or controlled by the experimenter.
The independent variable is graphed along the x-axis.
a graph of the independent variable and dependant that shows a graph with a fixed gradient (I.E a line graph) The equation of the graph will be given by y = mx +c where m is the gradient and c is a constant
The independent variable is plotted on the horizontal axis, or x axis. The dependent variable, or response variable is plotted on the vertical axis, or y axis.
A scatter graph.
on a line graph, the independent variable is plotted on the horizontal x- axis, and the dependent variable is plotted on the vertical y- axis.
