Question

Chapter 4, Problem 9SGR

To determine

To find: how are points on the best fit line used with data.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 9SGR

Line of best fit refers to a line through a scatter plot of data points that best expresses the relationship between those points. Statisticians typically use the least squares method to arrive at the geometric equation for the line, either though manual calculations or regression analysis software.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: points on the best fit line.

Calculation:

A line of best fit can be roughly determined using an eyeball method by drawing a straight line on a scatter plot so that the number of points above the line and below the line is about equal (and the line passes through as many points as possible).

Line of best fit refers to a line through a scatter plot of data points that best expresses the relationship between those points. Statisticians typically use the least squares method to arrive at the geometric equation for the line, either though manual calculations or regression analysis software.
