How do I calculate residuals and residual plots? Ex: The Watsons have always kept a garden of Geometrees in their yard. The data

table and scatter plot below represent the number of years for their longest living Geometree and how tall it has grown in feet.

Answer:

Complete step by step explanation along with graphs are provided below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a linear regression model described by the equation,

f(x) = 1.3x + 9.2

Where x is the age in years of the Geometrees and f(x) is the corresponding height of the Geometrees.

Residual value:

A residual value shows the position of a data point with respect to the regression line.  

The Residual value is calculated by

Residual value = Observed value - Predicted value

Where observed values are already given in the question.

The predicted values are calculated as

For x = 1

F(x) = 1.3(1) + 9.2 = 1.3 + 9.2 = 10.5

For x = 2

F(x) = 1.3(2) + 9.2 = 2.6 + 9.2 = 11.8

For x = 3

F(x) = 1.3(3) + 9.2 = 3.9 + 9.2 = 13.1

For x = 4

F(x) = 1.3(4) + 9.2 = 5.2 + 9.2 = 14.4

The rest of the predicted values are calculated similarly and are given in the attached table.

Now we can find out the residual values,

Residual value = Observed value - Predicted value

Residual value = 9 - 10.5 = -1.5

Residual value = 12 - 11.8 = 0.2

Residual value = 14 - 13.1 = 0.9

Residual value = 15 - 14.4 = 0.6

The rest of the residual values are calculated similarly and are given in the attached table.

A plot of residual values vs age of Geometrees is attached.

A plot of residual values vs height of Geometrees is also attached.

Note:

A residual value closer to 0 is desired since such values means that the regression best fits the data points.

When multiplying exponents do you add them.
Masja [62]
Add the exponents if the bases are the same, multiply the bases if the exponents are the same, if nothing is the same just solve it.

Type ALL the steps of writing the equation of the line given the slope of the line is −4 and a point on the line is (−2,1).
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

y = -4x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we use the slope intercept formula given by; y = mx + b

b = y intercept, which is when x = 0

m = slope

so they tell us the slope.. we just need to find b - the y intercept.

y = mx + b

plug in your coordinates (-2,1)

1 = -4(-2) + b

1 = 8 + b

1 - 8 = b

-7 = b

put it all together.

y = -4x - 7
