I am trying to create two side by side bar charts that have the same y-axis.
I would like to have one chart with the x-axis increasing from right to left
(this would be the chart on the left) and the other chart with the x-axis
increasing from left to right (this would be the chart on the right). How do
I create the chart on the left?

If you use a 3-D chart you can twist it round by grabbing the corner.
Hope this helps

That's sometimes called a Tornado chart:
