| When you plot the volume of the gas against the temperature, the line of the graph shows the relationship between the two variables, temperature and volume. Temperature is on the [...] and volume is on the [...]. | When you plot the volume of the gas against the temperature, the line of the graph shows the relationship between the two variables, temperature and volume. Temperature is on the x-axis and volume is on the y-axis.

| When you plot One thing 'against' another, the one thing goes on the [...] and the other thing goes on the [...]... that's the (arbitrary) convention (don't blame me, it's not my fault). | When you plot One thing 'against' another, the one thing goes on the y-axis and the other thing goes on the x-axis... that's the (arbitrary) convention (don't blame me, it's not my fault).

| If the graph of one variable against another shows a straight line, the two have a [...] relationship. | If the graph of one variable against another shows a straight line, the two have a linear relationship.

| [...]-axis: the bottom of the graph... measures side-to-side | x-axis: the bottom of the graph... measures side-to-side
🗑

| [...]-axis: the left side of the graph... measures up-and-down | y-axis: the left side of the graph... measures up-and-down
🗑

| The independent variable is (by convention) placed on the [...]-axis | The independent variable is (by convention) placed on the x-axis
🗑
|

| The dependant variable is (by convention) placed on the [...]-axis | The dependant variable is (by convention) placed on the y-axis
🗑
|

| A [...] line shows the relationship between the independent and dependent variables. | A trend line shows the relationship between the independent and dependent variables.
🗑
|

| When you draw a trend line, you don't try to connect the dots. You draw a line that shows the [...] of your data points. | When you draw a trend line, you don't try to connect the dots. You draw a line that shows the general trend of your data points.
🗑
|
||||
| The slope of a line is the [...] divided by the [...] between two points on the line. | The slope of a line is the change in y values divided by the change in x values between two points on the line.
🗑
|
||||
| If the graph of one variable plotted against another is not a straight line, they have a [...] relationship. | If the graph of one variable plotted against another is non a straight line, they have a non-linear relationship.
🗑
|
||||
| If one variable increases as the other one also increases, they have a [...] relationship. | If one variable increases as the other one also increases, they have a direct relationship.
🗑
|
||||
| If one variable decreases as the other one increases, they have an [...] relationship. | If one variable decreases as the other one increases, they have an indirect relationship.

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
