Question

2. Set up a matrix equation Ax = b to help you find the least squares line of best fit to the data points (0, 2), (1, 4), (2, 4), (3, 6). Then give the normal equation corresponding to it, and solve the normal equation to give an equation for the least squares line of best fit. [5 marks]

Step 1

We can write this in matrix form as: $$ \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 \\ 1 & 3 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} c \\ m \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 4 \\ 4 \\ 6 \end{pmatrix} $$ Show more…
