What does "versus" mean in the context of a graph?
WEBThe answer (as is often the case) come from Latin. "versus" simply means against and is used in the sporting context as well. We say that in some contest "Team A versus team B", meaning team A is against team B. The graph is the same - one variable is plotted against (or versus) another. From the same cognate root we also get the English ...

Singular points, $x$ versus $x^2$ - Mathematics Stack Exchange
WEBAug 12, 2017 — The answer is that singularity is defined in terms of the image, not the parametrization: if F(x, y) = 0 F (x, y) = 0 defines the image of the curve in two dimensional space, then a singular point is where the partial derivatives of F F are both zero. For example, the y y axis is defined by the zeros of the function F(x, y) = y F (x, y) = y.
Interpreting Line Integrals with respect to $x$ or $y$
WEB1. This diagram came from James Stewart's Calculus. One example from the text was ∫C2xds, where C goes from (0, 0) to (1, 1) along y = x2 and from (1, 1) to (1, 2) along the vertical line segment. With the parametrization x = x, y = x2 in the parabola and x = 1, y = y in the line segment, you will get ∫Cf(x, y)ds = ∫1 02x√1 + 4x2dx ...

What is the difference between linear regression on y with x and x …
WEB(However, it is customary to use x on the horizontal axis and y on the vertical axis.) For regression of y on x (with y's are on the vertical axis, and to be predicted from x's), the estimated slope is $\hat \beta_1 = s_{xy}/s_x,$ so that the units are those of y. For regression of x on y (x on the vertical axis, a 'nonstandard' situation) the ...
Volume of Solid Rotated about Y-Axis - Mathematics Stack Exchange
WEBAug 26, 2016 — So we are adding each infinitesimal disk between 3 3 and 4 4 on the y y -axis. This is the same as integrating a volume function from 3 3 to 4 4 of an area function at each point. Since rotating this gives us a circle, πr2 π r 2. Our function x = 1 7 x = 1 7 e y is now a function that outputs a radius. (Quite convenient but not a coincidence!)
