Answer:

school day

Step-by-step explanation:

When drawing a chart or a graph:

x-axis: Independent variable
y-axis: Dependent variable

The two given variables are:

number of students who wear blue shirts
days of the week

Therefore, in this scenario the independent variable is the school day and the dependent variable is the number of students since the former effects the latter.

So the data on the horizontal axis (x-axis) is: school day
