0 the line of figures or coordinates that are arranged from left to right on a graph or map: --
1 a horizontal line that forms one side of a coordinate plane (= region formed by two number lines) --
2 the horizontal line of figures along the bottom of a graph, often representing time: --
The x-axis represents expenditure and the y-axis profit.
The reason for the slight distortion of the symmetry of the radiation pattern with respect to the x-axis is the asymmetry of the meander coil.
The dotted line in the plane of the x-axis represents the cutoff level for significant probability of coiled-coil structure.
There are no constraints on the qualitative magnitudes, since the point at which f crosses the x-axis is not + known.
Helminth species are ranked from most to least abundant on the x-axis.
In the new and the old stable, letters under the x-axis correspond to treatments as listed in the text.
To visualize this, we generated new graphs by plotting the rank of a candidate's score on the x-axis.
Subjects are only shown on the x-axis when they occurred in at least four obligatory contexts.
The x-axis depicts time from critical stimulus onset (indicated by the vertical bar), while the y-axis depicts amplitude in microvolts.
