Explanation:

In scatter plots, the explanatory (independent) variable is placed on the horizontal (x) axis, as it is the variable used to explain changes in the response (dependent) variable on the vertical (y) axis. Looking at each graph:

1. First graph: Horizontal axis is Temperature
2. Second graph: Horizontal axis is Time
3. Third graph: Horizontal axis is Length

These are the explanatory variables.
