\[m=\frac{n\sum xy-\sum x\sum y} {n\sum x-\sum x\sum x}\] \[b=-m\bar x+\bar y\]
forgot an x n sum xx
And I know the slope is ,25x
I mean .25
the regression line without the data is rather hard to interpret since we dont know how well it fits but as is, its assume that there is some positive direct correlation between the variables
y = the number of balls Mike fetches in one hour after taking each steroid dose. x = number of hours
or something like that
the interpretation is just speculative .. assuming the model predicts the outcomes the y intercept is the base value, the standard with which to compare the results with when nothing has been altered.
14 doses, after each dose ... 1x is 1 dose, 2x is 2 doses etc... that makes more sense
yes
the number of balls increases by .25 per hour for a given number of x doeses
Ok, makes more sense thanks
good luck with it :)
by using the equation .... it predicts the number of balls
assuming 1gm is a dose ... let x = 110 in stats, r tends to be a correlation coefficient so id have to read up to recall how to use it in this case
Sorry If I'm giving you a hard time, I wish if this website allows one to give more than medal, you deserve it pal...
looking up if r is usable or not at the moment
ok
hmm, not sure yet, but r^2 seems to indicate the proportion of the predicted variable that can be explained http://stattrek.com/regression/linear-regression.aspx
Ok thanks, I'll check the link :D
yep
