Abscissa Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

independent variable - Answer- the quantity you vary or control; it is assigned to the abscissa (x-axis) dependent variable - Answer- the quantity you measure in the lab; it is assigned to the ordinate (y-axis) ordinate - Answer- y-axis abscissa - Answer- x-axis slope - Answer- change in y/change in x best-fit line equations - Answer- y=mx+b *m is the slope; b is the y-intercept interpolated results - Answer- lie within the range of measured data extrapolated results - Answe...

AB design - A single subject research design that contains one baseline (A) and one treatment (B). ABAB design (reversal design) - An extension of the AB design in which the independent variable is withdrawn and then reapplied. This reversal design can demonstrate a functional relation between dependent and independent variables. abscissa - The horizontal or x axis of a graph. The time dimension (sessions) is represented along the abscissa. accountability - In education, the assessment of...

Math Praxis Practice Test (5003) Questions and Answers Already Passed Six children have collected these amounts in their piggy banks: $10, $33, $45, $23, $1, and $68. What is the median of their savings? a. $28 b. $33 c. $23 d. $66 answer: a. $28 Rearrange the numbers in increasing order: 1, 10, 23, 33, 45, and 68. The median of a sequence of numbers is the middle value. Since there are six numbers, there are two values in the middle 23 and 33 and, therefore, the median is the average of ...
