Which of the following best describes how friction affects motion ?

A. When the independent variable is continuous and shows a causal link to the dependent variable.

Explanation:

A graph can be defined as the graphical representation of data (informations) on horizontal and vertical lines i.e x-axis and y-axis respectively.

In an experiment , the variable being manipulated by an experimenter is known as an independent variable while the dependent variable is the event expected to change when the independent variable is manipulated

Generally, a line graph should be used when the independent variable is continuous and shows a causal link to the dependent variable.

This ultimately implies that, a line graph should be used when the data changes continuously over time and as such there exist a linear relationship between the data (variables).
