<span>Linear regression is a method of finding the linear equation that comes closest to fitting a collection of data points.
</span>The better the choice of line, the closer the predicted values will be to the observed values.
The differences between the data pints (observed values) and the estimated (pedicted) regression line is called the <span>residue.
</span>Residue = Observed Value -<span> Predicted Value</span>
Answer:
x = 2 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles of 45 degreees = two congruent legs
for the Pythagorean theorem
2x^2 = 8
x^2 = 4
x = 2
