Statistical Regression Models and Predicting Values

The video tutorial explains how to determine the best statistical regression model for predicting bacteria growth. It covers linear and nonlinear functions, using graphing calculators to input data and create scatterplots, and selecting the best regression model. The tutorial also discusses interpolation and extrapolation for making predictions, emphasizing the importance of checking multiple regression models to ensure the best fit.
