Answer:
B) The sum of the squared residuals
Step-by-step explanation:
Least Square Regression Line is drawn through a bivariate data(Data in two variables) plotted on a graph to explain the relation between the explanatory variable(x) and the response variable(y).
Not all the points will lie on the Least Square Regression Line in all cases. Some points will be above line and some points will be below the line. The vertical distance between the points and the line is known as residual. Since, some points are above the line and some are below, the sum of residuals is always zero for a Least Square Regression Line.
Since, we want to minimize the overall error(residual) so that our line is as close to the points as possible, considering the sum of residuals wont be helpful as it will always be zero. So we square the residuals first and them sum them. This always gives a positive value. The Least Square Regression Line minimizes this sum of residuals and the result is a line of Best Fit for the bivariate data.
Therefore, option B gives the correct answer.

Explanation:
The only perfect squares between 15 and 25 inclusive are
16
and
25
∴
Sum of perfect squares
=
16
+
25

41
Let current price = x cents
prior price = x+44 cents
9 loaves at current price cost 7 at prior price, so
9x=7*(x+44)
expand and rearrange,
2x=7*44=308
x=154
So the current price is $1.54
Perpendicular.
x = -1 is a vertical line intersecting the x-axis at (-1, 0).
y = -1 is a horizontal line intersecting the y-axis at (0, -1).
Because these lines are both straight, they will eventually intersect at (-1, -1). They will also form 90° angles, the definition of perpendicular.
