The variable plotted along the horizontal (x) axis is termed the independent variable.
The variable plotted along the vertical (y) axis is termed the dependent variable.
Usually equations of curves are given in the form y = f(x) meaning that the y value is dependent on the x value.

In general the value measured by the axis is called the dependent variable?
independent... *apex*
Each value measured in nature has a number value called its magnitude and a dimension or?
unit
The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?
The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance is sometimes colloquially phrased as "rise over run"; the numerically calculated value is called "slope". Mathematically, slope can be thought of as the tangent (function) of the "angle of elevation".
What is the percent error of the measurement 4 cm?
Percent error is calculated by the measured value and the acceped value. For example, if you measure a piece of paper and decide it is 8.45in long, that is your measured value. The package says it is 8.5in long, so it is the accepted value. The formula for percent error is |measured value - accepted value| divided by accepted value ALL times 100.
What is the percent error for a measured value of 3.14 and a correct value of 3.02?
3.97%
In general the value measured by the horizontal axes is called the?
independent variable

How close a measured value is to an accepted value is called a?
accuracy
What is the value measured by the horizontal axis called?
It is the x axis and the vertical is the y axis on the Cartesian plane whereas both axes intercept each other at the point of origin at right angles.

Specifying exactly what is to be measured in assigning a value to a variable is called what?
operationalization
Is the horizontal axis also called the value axis?
False! the vertical axis ( y axis) is the one also known as the value axis
What if actual value - measured value is negative?
Then the measured value is larger than the actual value.
The energy value of foods commonly counted by dieters is measured in units called?
Kilocalories
What is the form of an equation for a horizontal line?
For a horizontal line, it is y= a value
