Answer:
d) Squared differences between actual and predicted Y values.
Step-by-step explanation:
Regression is called "least squares" regression line. The line takes the form = a + b*X where a and b are both constants. Value of Y and X is specific value of independent variable.Such formula could be used to generate values of given value X.
For example,
suppose a = 10 and b = 7. If X is 10, then predicted value for Y of 45 (from 10 + 5*7). It turns out that with any two variables X and Y. In other words, there exists one formula that will produce the best, or most accurate predictions for Y given X. Any other equation would not fit as well and would predict Y with more error. That equation is called the least squares regression equation.
It minimize the squared difference between actual and predicted value.
They both have 4 congruent sides and angles.
7/6 is the answer. If you divide the denominator by 3, you would get it
Rise over run, -2/4 or -1/2 so the slope is -1/2 or -0.5. (View picture) And the slope is negative because you are going down wards \ and the "rise" is going down.
