Curve Fitting with Linear Models Section 2-7 2-7: Curve Fitting with Linear Models
Definitions • Regression is the statistical study of the relationship between sets of data • Scatterplot is a graph that helps understand the form, direction, and strength of the relation; individual points • Correlation is the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables • Correlation Coefficient is the measure of how well the data set is fit by through a model; represented by r • -1 ≤ r ≤ 1 • Line of Best Fit is the line that best approximates a set of data 2-7: Curve Fitting with Linear Models
Steps of Curve Fitting • Identify and list all of the data points • Put data into calculator – use STAT key • STAT CALC and select LinReg (ax + b) to get the equation 2-7: Curve Fitting with Linear Models
Example 1 The table shows the U.S. daily oil production y (in thousands of barrels x years) after 1994. • Use the graphing calculator to find and graph the equation of the best-fitting line. • Use the equation from part (a) to predict the daily oil production in 2009. 2-7: Curve Fitting with Linear Models
Your Turn Use the graphing calculator to find and graph the equation of the best-fitting line. 2-7: Curve Fitting with Linear Models
