Linear Regression

A person travels by car.  They record their miles driven in a data table.  Calculate the linear regression equation of this data.

• y = 61.93x - 1.79
• y = -1.79x + 61.93
• y = 0.016x + 0.03
• y = 0.03x + 0.016

The table shown is comparing a person's foot length to their height in cm. Calculate a line of best fit.

• f(x) = 25.05x + 5.57
• f(x) = 5.57x + 25.05
• f(x) = -5.57x + 25.05
• f(x) = 5.57x - 25.05

A restaurant sells pizza for the prices in the data table.  Calculate the linear regression equation of the data.

• y = 1.5x + 12
• y = 12x + 1.5
• y = 0.67x - 8
• y = -8x + 0.67

A person travels by car.  They record their miles driven in a data table.  Calculate the linear regression equation of this data.

Find the equation of the line of best fit for the given data

• y = 163.41x+1.49

• y =- 163.41x+ 4.19

• y =- 4.19x+163.41

• y = 4.19x -163.41

Find the equation of the Line of Best Fit from the data set. 

• y = 0.892x - 1.82
• y = 1.82x - 5.02
• y = 0.796x + 5.02
• y = 1.82x + 5.02

Shelia collected data on ticket sales for the homecoming dance.  If she plots the data on the scatterplot shown above, which equation best models the table?

• y = 4.22x + 20.98
• y = 4.22x - 20.98
• y = -4.22x + 20.98
• y = -4.22x - 20.98

The chart below tracts starting salaries for health care workers since the year 2000. Using linear regression, find the equation of best fit. Round decimals to 3 places.

• y = 839.721x + 27541.812
• y = 27541.812x - 839.721
• y = 27541.812x + 839.721
• y = 839.721x - 27541.812
