What is the equation of the best-fitting regression line? Find this in two ways. First, using the regression analysis part of th

Lemur [1.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression analysis is used to infer about the relationship between two or more variables.

The line of best fit is a straight line representing the regression equation on a scatter plot. The may pass through either some point or all points or none of the points.

Method 1:

Using regression analysis the line of best fit is: $y=\alpha +\beta x+e$

Here α = intercept, β = slope and e = error.

The formula to compute the intercept is:

$\alpha =\bar y-\beta \bar x$

Here $\bar y$ and $\bar x$ are mean of the y and x values respectively.

$\bar y=\frac{\sum y_{i}}{n} \\\bar x=\frac{\sum x_{i}}{n}$

The formula to compute the slope is:

$\beta =\frac{\sum (x-\bar x)(y - \bar y)}{\sum (x=\bar x)^{2}}$

And the formula to compute the error is:

$e=y-\alpha -\beta x$

Method 2:

The regression line can be determined using the descriptive statistics mean, standard deviation and correlation.

The equation of the line of best fit is:

$(y-\bar y)=r\frac{\sigma_{x}}{\sigma_{y}} (x-\bar x)$

Here r = correlation coefficient = $r=\frac{Cov (x,y)}{\sqrt{\sigma^{2}_{x}\sigma^{2}_{y}} }$

$\sigma_{x}$ and $\sigma_{y}$ are standard deviation of x and y respectively.

$\sigma_{x}=\frac{1}{n}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2} \\\sigma_{y}=\frac{1}{n}\sum (y-\bar y)^{2}$

You can tell this because exponents get added together when multiplying and the fact that the fraction goes down by a multiple of 1/8.

PLEASE HELP! find (1,2) obtained by translating 2 units down followed by a rotation of 180 counterclockwise.

N76 [4]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Translating two units down means we need to subtract two units from the y-coordinate. i.e

(x, y) → (x, y-2)

We are given that the original point is (1, 2), and we have to find the image of (2, 4) obtained by translating 2 units down followed by a rotation of 180 counterclockwise.

FOR (1, 2)

Given

P(1, 2)

First translation: Translating two units down

(x, y) → (x, y-2)

P(1, 2) → P'(1, 2-2) → P'(1, 0)

Second transformation: Rotation of 180 counterclockwise.

Rotation of 180 counterclockwise will make both 'x' and 'y' coordinates negative. i.e

(x, y) → (-x, -y)

Thus, after second transformation

P'(1, 0) → (-1, 0)

Thus, the image of (1, 2) obtained by translating 2 units down followed by a rotation of 180 counterclockwise will be: (-1, 0)

FOR (2, 4)

Given

P(2, 4)

First translation: Translating two units down

(x, y) → (x, y-2)

P(2, 4) → P'(2, 4-2) → P'(2, 2)

Second transformation: Rotation of 180 counterclockwise.

Rotation of 180 counterclockwise will make both 'x' and 'y' coordinates negative. i.e

(x, y) → (-x, -y)

Thus, after the second transformation

P'(2, 2) → (-2, -2)

Thus, the image of (2, 4) obtained by translating 2 units down followed by a rotation of 180 counterclockwise will be: (-2, -2)
