First you rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation
Second you solve it by using the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which “y” is the vet risk axis and “x” the horizontal axis.
We have been provided a diagram which tells us that Patti drew vertical line segments from two points to the line in her scatter plot. The first point she selected was dwarf crocodile. The second point she selected was for an Indian Gharial crocodile.
We can see that dwarf crocodile's bite force is closer to line of best fit than Indian Gharial crocodile. Indian Gharial crocodile seems to be an outlier for our data set.
Therefore, Patti's line have resulted in a predicted bite force that was closer to actual bite force for the dwarf crocodile.
