If you believe that one of the variables depends on the other then the dependent variable should go on the y axis. If they are dependent on each other (or both dependent on something else) or if they are independent then do whatever you like.
Usually the variable placed on the x-axis will be the known values to which you want to correlate the unknown variable on the y-axis. Usually sequential information such as sample number or date or time will be placed on the x-axis as well.
The x variable, of course! If there are only two variables then the independent variable, if one exists, should be plotted on the x-axis.
The X and Y axes meet at the origin.
Mass is the independent variable and should be plotted on the x-axis.
When creating a graph, the x-axis typically represents the independent variable, which is the variable that you manipulate or control. It usually displays values in a logical order, such as time intervals or categories. The y-axis, in contrast, represents the dependent variable, showing the outcomes that depend on the values of the independent variable. Always label both axes clearly to ensure the graph is easily understood.

1. Make it as simple as possible 2. Find your x, or whatever variable you are using 3. Be careful when graphing, the curves and axes intercepts should be accurate
The x variable, of course! If there are only two variables then the independent variable, if one exists, should be plotted on the x-axis.
The x is on the top left and y is on the bottom.
the x axes is the bold line that goes horizontally the one that goes vertically is the y axes!
X goes on the x-axis, and y goes on the y-axis....
The X and Y axes meet at the origin.
X and Y axes.
In most cases, x is independent and y is dependent. That is, you choose the value of x, but this x-value will decide the corresponding y-value.
The independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis in a graph or chart.
each of the four regions created on the coordinate plane by the x- and y-axes.
