Should the independent variable always be plotted on the y axis?

Generally speaking yes. It would be assumed when looking at a graph that the x axis is the variable you are able to change and so the y axis would be the result.

Is time always on x-axis?
Typically the independent variable is plotted on the horizontal (x) axis. Usually time is an independent variable, and the other variables are dependent on time and other factors. In general, yes, plots involving time would show time as the x-axis.
What variable is always on the first column of a graph or data table?
Independent
Does a variable next to number mean multiply?
yes it does always remember that :)
What are good questions to ask when trying to understand a problem?
Which of the following are good questions to ask when trying to understand a problem? Check all that apply.A. What are the units of the variable? B. Does my guess satisfy the equation? C. How should I present the solution? D. What is the variable? E. Is the variable always positive, negative, or either? F. What is a logical name for the variable? for apex-a, d, e and f
Is the symbol pi considered a variable in math?
No. It is a constant. A variable is something that changes value in certain circumstances; pi always has the same value.
What axis do you read time?
Time is almost always an independent variable. Typically, independent variables are plotted along the horizontal axis.
Why is time plotted on the horizontal axis in an experiment?
It is because time is often, though not always, an independent variable.
Where is t-axis on a graph?
Time is nearly always the independent variable, which are normally plotted on the horizontal axis.
Why time is always taken on horizontal axis?
The horizontal axis is reserved for the independent variable in a function. Time is always an independent variable in time-based functions. However, duration can be dependent. It depends on what's being plotted.
Which type of variable is plotted on the x-axis the y-axis?
Always when using a line graph use the x-axis for independent variable and the y-axis for dependent variable.
The independent variable should always be graphed on the?
Horizontal axis
What is always plotted on the y-axis of a scatter plot?
Dependent variable
Which axis holds the independent variable?
An independant variable should always be on the x-axis of a graph and the dependant variable on the y-axis.
Is time always on x-axis?
Typically the independent variable is plotted on the horizontal (x) axis. Usually time is an independent variable, and the other variables are dependent on time and other factors. In general, yes, plots involving time would show time as the x-axis.
Is the independent variable measured?
Both dependent and independent variables must be either a measure or a count. When you collect the data the independent variable often (but not always) is a whole number. As an example: A plant grew 1.5" the first day, 1.3" the second day... The growth (in inches) is plotted on the Y-axis and is dependent on the time (days) interval over which the growth rate was measured. Days plot on the X-axis as the independent variable.

What variable is always graphed as the independent variable?
x is used a lot to represent an independent variable. When time is the independent variable t is often used as well.
