When a function is graphed, the dependent variable is usually measured along the y-axis. This is because y is the function of x.

When you read a bar graph it is most important for you to?

Know what variable is graphed!


How you would know what variables are positively linearly correlated?

After the data is collected and graphed, it will be in a line virtually straight. You can then form a relationship using the basic linear formula and see if it is close enough to be acceptable.


Is The title of a graph describes the data being graphed?

The title of a graph should be an indication of the information that the graph is meant to convey. It may not be a direct description of the data but it should certainly be relevant to the data being used. For example, a graph showing number of residents against years might have a title of "Growth in the town". The title refers not to the data but to the information the graph is showing.


Is a pie graph similar to a bar graph?

SOURCE OF Safowan Tamim - ONLYWell if you notice a pie graph is a circle and a bar graph is a graph that contains bars/rectengles that have gaps in between there statistic for example when graphed they have a gap between each bar that you displayed or recorded!Pie Graph also sums up the data and converts its statistics to a percentage when it is out of 100% to compare each result, however the bar graph just shows the changes over a period of time by its actual tally marks or numerical numbers!


A set of data that can be graphed with a bar graph but not with a histogram?

A histogram graphs the frequency of how often a specific item falls into a specific category. For instance a histogram would show how many buildings in a city are two, three, four stories, etc... A bar graph compares a specific trait of several candidates. For instance. If you were asked to compare the population of several cities a bar graph would show each cities exact value. a histogram would show how many of the cities fall into different size ranges. Try this: take a group out to ice cream. How many want sprinkles? how many want chocolate? etc....

The dependent variable


What have in common independent and dependent variables?

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.


When a relationship is graphed on a Cartesian coordinate system what represents the dependent variable?

What variable is always graphed as the independent variable?

The independent variable is always graphed on the x-axis. This variable is manipulated or controlled by the experimenter and is used to examine its effect on the dependent variable.


What is the independent variable on graphs?

The independent variable is typically plotted on the x-axis of a graph. It is the variable that is controlled or manipulated by the experimenter and is used to determine its effect on the dependent variable.


What is an independent variable That has to do with science?

When graphing in science, the independent variable is the variable graphed on the x-axis; the dependent variable is the variable graphed on the y-axis. To determine the name of the variable, one only needs to find the variable changed by the other variable and the variable remaining unaffected by the other variable. For example, someone wanted to find the the increased temperature of water over a stove during a period of time. Since increasing water temperature cannot affect time and increasing time can affect the water becomes the dependent variable and time becomes the independent variable.
