M14; 2D plot for 2 variable function - one variable constant

[TeddySalvadore]

Hi All,

I have a stress equation that is a function of both X and Z (horizontal distance and depth).

I want to produce a 2D plot of this function with a constant X and a variable Z. When I use the 2D plot and input the range variable 'z' on the vertical axis and stress(100,z) it does not give me the correct results.

Any ideas?

z is NOT a range variable in your sheet!

Mathcads quickplot feature would work only for an undefined variable at the abscissa, not the ordinate.

So if you want the independent variable z at the ordinate, you have to define a range variable for z to make it work.

Thanks! I knew it was something simple. Much appreciated.
