Introduction to residuals and least-squares regression. Of course the points might not fit the function exactly but the aim is to get as close as possible. The regression equation of Y on X is Y 0929X 7284 Example 910 Calculate the two regression equations of X on Y and Y on X from the data given below taking deviations from a actual means of X and Y.
Regression fits the data.
Regression fits the data. Introduction to residuals and least-squares regression. The equation of linear regression is similar to the slope formula what we have learned before in earlier classes such as linear equations in two variables. V1 is the slope.
