A solution curve is graphed starting at the initial condition value t 0 and

continues until it reaches a target value, which can be either t min or
t max. The solution direction determines the target values. Forward will
graph the solution from t 0 to t max. Backward will graph the solution
from t 0 to t min. Both will graph the solution from t 0 to t min, and then t 0
to t max.
Independent
Assignment of the independent variable for differential equations. The
possible values are x or t . If you are graphing a phase plane you cannot
choose the independent variable. It will automatically be set to t.
t 0 (or x 0)
If the independent variable is different from the x -axis variable then you
can enter the initial value for the independent variable, unless you are
graphing a slope field.
t min (or x min)
If the independent variable is different from the x -axis variable then you
can enter the minimum value for the independent variable.
t max (or x max)
If the independent variable is different from the x -axis variable then you
can enter the maximum value for the independent variable.
x -Axis
Assignment for the (horizontal) x -axis. If you are graphing a slope field
or phase plane you will not be able to choose the x -axis variable but it
will still be displayed in this dialog box.
y -Axis
Assignment for the (vertical) y -axis. If you are graphing a slope field or
phase plane you will not be able to choose the y -axis variable but it will
still be displayed in this dialog box.
