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.

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".
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.

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.

False! the vertical axis ( y axis) is the one also known as the value axis
Then the measured value is larger than the actual value.

The object upon which the response variable is measured is called experimental. The response variable is the variable whose value can be explained by the predictor variable.
