To determine whether the model is a good fit for the data by using residuals.
Answer to Problem 56E
The model is a good fit for the given data.
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
There are some data, which is given below:
x | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
y | 6 | 4 | 6 | 1 | 2 | -4 | -3 |
The equation of the line
There are two points
The Slope of the line which passes through
Slope of the line which passes through
Now,
Therefore,
The derived equation of the line is similar to the give given equation.
Hence,
The model is a good fit for the given data.
