i'd put age on the horizontal and education on the vertical
The usual way is to plot the independent variable on the horizontal, and the dependent variable on the vertical. There are some where the dependent is on the horizontal, though. Supply-Demand and Price graphs in Economics comes to mind, as an example.
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
When the horizontal variable goes from positive to negative.
Independent on the x-axis (horizontal) and dependent on the y-axis (vertical).
The x axis is horizontal; the y axis is vertical
The independent variable is by convention drawn on the x (horizontal) axis, with the dependent variable on the y (vertical) axis.
Better to plot the subjects' ages on the X-axis (horizontal) and their years of education on the Y-axis (vertical).
The independent variable is along the bottom or horizontal or x axis. The dependent variable is up the left hand side or vertical or y axis
The two variables plotted on a graph depend on the type of graph being used. In a typical line graph, the y-axis (vertical) represents the dependent variable, while the x-axis (horizontal) represents the independent variable.
Anything variable that you like. If there is only one independent variable then conventionally that is plotted on the horizontal axis while other variables go on the vertical axis. But even this is not true for population pyramids.
Independent and dependent variables are graphed on the axes of a rectangular grid (e.g. graph paper). The important thing is to understand which is which. The independent variable is graphed on the horizontal (x-) axis. In an experiment you choose values of the independent variable and measure the values of the dependent variable (it "depends' on the other). The dependent variable is graphed on the vertical (y-) axis.
The usual way is to plot the independent variable on the horizontal, and the dependent variable on the vertical. There are some where the dependent is on the horizontal, though. Supply-Demand and Price graphs in Economics comes to mind, as an example.
The independent variable, or the x-value, is horizontal.
If there is an independent variable then that goes on the horizontal axis. Otherwise, you decide which way you want to plot them.
You should usually put the independent variable on the x-axis (horizontal) and the dependent variable on the y-axis (vertical). This helps to clearly show the relationship between the two variables being plotted.
If you are graphing the results of an experiment, the dependent variable is on the vertical, or y-axis, and the independent variable is on the horizontal axis, or x-axis.
Rate of change of the "vertical" variable in relation to the "horizontal" variable.
