What to put on an x axis of an average graph?

There's no such thing as an 'average' graph, but we can talk about a typical one.The independent variable of an equation in one variable is typically plotted alongthe x-axis of a typical graph.


Where do you put the independent and dependent variables on a graph?

The independent variable is along the bottom or horizontal or x axis. The dependent variable is up the left hand side or vertical or y axis


How do you plot concentration against length in a graph?

It depends on which variable is independent, and which one is dependent (its value is determined by a function of the independent variable). So suppose that concentration is a function of an arbitrary length (the length is what determines concentration). The independent variable (length) is put on the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable (concentration) is put on the vertical axis.


What is dependent and independent variables in the scientific method?

The independent variable is the one thing in the experiment that does change. The dependent variable "depends" on the independent variable. For example if you were testing to see how well plants grow in the dark, and you put one plant in a closet and the other by a window. The independent variable would be the amount of sunlight that each plant gets. The dependent variable would be if the plants grew or not because it depends on how much sunlight each plant got.


What is the difference between an independent variable and a dependant variable?

In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that can be altered or controlled to produce a change. The result being studied is the dependent variable, which is observed to change as the independent variable is changed.Example : In an experiment testing the effect of caffeine on reaction times, the amount of caffeine consumed is the independent variable and can be varied. The reaction times are the dependent variable, and a correlation (change in times) with the independent (amount given) is the information being sought.There are three kinds of variables. These are:Independent variable: is not affected by any effects in the experimentDependent variable: its reaction does depend on other variablesControlled variable: variable that you can control throughout the entire experimentTo put it simply, the independent variable tries to manipulate the dependent variable in an experiment.The independent variable (manipulated variable) is a variable that is changed by the experimenter. The dependent variable (responding variable) is what you are trying to determine in an experiment. My 6th grade science teacher taught us a poemThe manipulated is what you control the responding variable is your ultimate goal.
