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 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

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
