There is no predetermined scale. You choose the scale so as to best represent the data.
I'm not sure I understand your question, but if the point (10,6) is plotted 2 squares to the right of the origin and 3 squares up, then the horizontal scale interval is 5 and the vertical scale interval is 2. Each horizontal space represents 5; each vertical space represents 2.
If the y axis is part of the Cartesian coordinate system, then the other coordinate is zero.Their x-axis value is 0.
It is somewhat subjective what the most important part of a graph is. It is very important that you label each axis.
Along the bottom and up the left hand side for most graphs.In the general case the x-axis runs horizontally through the origin, and the y-axis runs vertically through the origin. In each case the axis runs from minus infinity to plus infinity.Well if your talking about on a coordinate plane or a set of perpendicular lines the y axis goes up and down and the x axis goes sideways (if you want it simple).
Graphing is an important part of mathematics. However, all the names of each axis and planes can be hard. The x-axis is also called the horizontal axis.
A Scale
A graph drawing in which each edge is represented by a polyline, each segment of which is parallel to a coordinate axis.
I consider how many numbers there are. If possible, you want to make the graph short both horizontally and vertically. If the highest x-coordinate is 200, for example, then it would be possible to make the scale 20, 25, or 50, depending on the data that is to be graphed. This is ideal if there are output numbers which occur in multiples of 20, 25, or 50 (in this case.) If there are several numbers in-between your scale, then you may consider drawing the graph with a scale of 1, or reducing the scale to something more practical. In this case, if the scale was 50, and an x-coordinate was 15, it could pose as a challenge to determine what the x-coordinate is with a scale of 50.
The y-values (the second number) in each coordinate (point) given to you. For example, the point (4,8) would have a y-value of 8
Units of measurement along each axis of a graph are evenly distributed to maintain consistency and proportionality. This means that as you move along each axis, the values increase or decrease at a constant rate based on the scale set for that axis. This helps in accurately representing the data and relationships between variables.
When numbering each axis on a graph, you should ensure that the intervals are evenly spaced to provide a clear representation of the data. It is important to start the axis at zero to accurately reflect the scale of the data being presented. Additionally, labeling the axis with an appropriate unit of measurement is crucial for interpretation.
It is a coordinate of x and y on the coordinate plane
A grid with a horizontal axis and a vertical axis that intersect at a point is called a Cartesian coordinate system. The axes are perpendicular to each other and therefore form four right angles at the point at which they intersect, known as the origin.
Whatever is being measured along the x-axis, you allocate 2-cm of the line to one unit of x. So, for example, if you are drawing a graph of life expectancy against current age (all measured in years), then each year of the current age (independent variable) would be 2 cm apart.
You graph each of them separately, on the same coordinate plane.
On an XY graph, the X axis and Y axis create four separate areas. Each one is a quadrant.
A coordinate (or coordinate pair); each number is called an ordinate.
