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.
To set up the labels for the x and y axes of a graph using a data table, first identify the variables represented in your data. The independent variable, often plotted on the x-axis, should be placed in the first column, while the dependent variable, plotted on the y-axis, should be in the second column. Once the variables are determined, label the axes accordingly, ensuring that the title clearly reflects what each axis represents. Finally, consider including units of measurement if applicable for clarity.
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.

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 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.
An independant variable should always be on the x-axis of a graph and the dependant variable on the y-axis.
each of the four regions created on the coordinate plane by the x- and y-axes.
