What is the horizontal or vertical number line on a coordinate plane?
They are the axes. Usually horizontal = x-axis, vertical = y-axis. But that need not always apply. In a displacement-time or speed-time graph, for example, the horizontal axis = t-axis (for time).
Where is t-axis on a graph?
Time is nearly always the independent variable, which are normally plotted on the horizontal axis.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The straight horizontal line on the graph says: "Whatever time you look at, the speed is always the same". This is the graph of an object moving with constant speed.
What is on the horizontal axis of a speed graph?
The independent variable, in this case time, is on the horizontal axis of a speed graph.
Does a distance-versus-time graph show a horizontle line?
Distance and Time are variables and always moving. Therefore the answer is no. Let's suppose: If time is the vertical axis and distance (travelled) the horizontal axis. Standing still (not travelling) would show a vertical graph line. If distance is the vertical axis and time the horizontal axis. Then standing still would form a horizontal line based on time alone.
