What direction does the x axis run on a graph?
horizontal
Which axis of a graph will always run horizontally?
x-axis
What does the horizontal line on a graph mean?
It's known as the X-axis. Most of the time used for the Independent Variable. Also used for the run (if on a Cartesian Plane) if doing slope. It does not have a Direct Definition, but is called the X-axis.
What axis of a graph will always run vertically from the bottom to the top of the page?
The 'Y' axis.
The horizontal change on a graph as an object moves between two points?
Run

Which axis of a graph will always run horizontally lefl to right across the page?
The X axis.
Which axis of a graph will always run horizintally left to right across the page?
X Axis
What are the horizontal lines that form circles and run in the same direction as the equator?
lines of latitude are horizontal lines that form circles and that run in the same direction as the equator
How can you find the unit rate from a line on a graph that goes through the origin?
It is the gradient of the line. Pick any two points on the line. Measure the RISE = difference in their heights (distances from the x-axis), and the RUN = difference in their horizontal displacements (distances from the y-axis). The unit rate is RISE/RUN.
The horizontal change on a graph as an object moves between two points?
Run
How to read a graph?
A graph has two axes, the one running top to bottom (vertical or y axis) and one running right to left (horizontal or x axis). You can run your finger up the y axis to the point where it is at the same height as the point on the line you are interested in, and note the number on the y axis, then run your finger across to the point on the line you are interested in, then take your finger down to the x axis and note the number of that axis, then combine the two. For example, if the graph shows height on the y axis and time on the x axis, you go up the y axis to say, 23 cm, then across to the point on the line, then down to the x axis which is say, 12 hours, then you know that by 12 hours the plant (for example) had grown 23 cm.
The variable plottted on the horizontal x-axis is called?
You're generally going to put the independent variable on the horizontal axis, ie the variable that you decided to change in the experiment. If it is a continuous variable (ie a run of numbers) then you will be plotting a line graph and joining with a line or curve of best fit. If your variable is categoric ie has labels rather than numbers, or if it is whole-number only, then you're going to be plotting a bar graph.
