The x-axis on a graph typically represents the independent variable, or the variable being controlled or manipulated. It is also known as the horizontal axis and is where you would plot the values of the independent variable being studied.
No, typically in a scatter plot, the independent variable goes on the x-axis and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis. So in this case, mass would go on the x-axis and density on the y-axis.
The independent variable is typically placed on the x-axis in a graph or chart.
The independent variable typically goes on the x-axis, and the dependent variable goes on the y-axis.
In most cases, yes, the y-axis represents the dependent variable in a graph or chart. This variable is typically influenced or affected by changes in another variable represented on the x-axis.

the independent variable
The horizontal axis, or "X" axis, is usually reserved for the variable you have no control over, such as the passing of time. This is called the independent variable.

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 variable on the x axis is called the independent variable. the y axis is called the dependant variable

The independent variable is on the horizontal axis.
