Actually, in an expression (which has no equal sign) the terms are customarily written in alphabetical order:
5a + 6b -3x + 21y.
In an equation (which has an equal sign) the y is often written on the left:
y = 3x - 2.
This is because the most common graphs have x on the horizontal axis and y on the vertical axis. A graph like this shows how y depends on x. x is the independent variable (which we choose), and y is the dependent variable (which we figure out). If we have a value for x, say 5, then we can figure out y:
y = 3x - 2 = 3(5) - 2 = 15 - 2 = 13.

Which is first x or y axis?
Well, honey, the x-axis always comes before the y-axis in the Cartesian coordinate system. It's like the x-axis is the opening act, setting the stage for the y-axis to come in and steal the show. So, remember, x marks the spot before y gets its turn to shine.
What do you use first in coordinates y or x?
You use the x-coordinate before the y- coordinate.
What is x equals y squared minus 2?
Im assuming you are trying to come up with a y intercept equation for a graph. If that assumption is correct x = y^2 - 2 y^2 = x + 2 y = SQRT ( x + 2 )
X squared minus x squared equals what?
Im assuming you are trying to come up with a y intercept equation for a graph. If that assumption is correct x = y^2 - 2 y^2 = x + 2 y = SQRT ( x + 2 )
Is the domain dependent or independent?
domain is independent why? because its before range or also known as x/domain and y/range(x,y).
