1. Given the data set: (23, 16), (26, 20), (19, 17), (27, 22), (29, 25), (22, 20); find the equation of the line of best fit and the associated r and R2 values.
Added by Aurora V.
Step 1
To find the equation of the line of best fit, we first need to calculate the mean of the x and y values in the data set. Mean of x values: (23 + 26 + 19 + 27 + 29 + 22) / 6 = 146 / 6 = 24.33 Mean of y values: (16 + 20 + 17 + 22 + 25 + 20) / 6 = 120 / 6 = 20 Show more…
