If you talk of a scatter plot, regularly the x-axis is used to plot the explanatory variable, this is the possible cause; while the y-axis is used to plot the varibale that is being explained, the result, the efffect.
If you are dealing with a function or model, you the convention is to use the x-axis for the independent variable, this is the input, while the y-axis is for the output or dependent varibale (which is determined by the independent variable).
Answer:
y = -1/6x - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the first line is y = 6x - 14
Convert the slope 6 so it becomes -1/6
Answer:
170°
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert from radians to degrees
degree measure = radian measure × 
, thus
degree = 
×
Cancel π on numerator/denominator and 18/ 180 by 18
degree measure = = 17 × 10 = 170°
