Independent & Dependent Quantities
Some upfront work will help you with finding answers. Always label the independent quantity (x) and dependent quantity (y) on tables and graphs. That way you don't have to remember every time you read an answer choice...that work is already done.

- X is on the right or top in tables, and the horizontal (across) axis in graphs.
- Y is on the left or bottom in tables, and the vertical (up and down) axis in graphs.
