| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Regression Equation | the equation representing the relation between selected values of one variable |
| Residuals | The vertical distance between a data point and the graph of a regression equation. |
| Best Fit Line | In statistics, linear regression is any approach to modeling the relationship between a scalar variable y and one or more variables denoted X |
| Correlation Coefficient | A number between −1 and +1 calculated so as to represent the linear dependence of two variables or sets of data. |
| Interpolate | A method of constructing new data points within a range of a discrete set of known data points |
| Linear Function | A first-degree polynomial function of one variable |
| Linear Regression | The straight line that best describes the realtionship between two variables |
| Y-Intercept | A point at which a graph intersects the y-axis. |
| Slope | The ratio of the rise over the run of a line |
| Extrapolate | To estimate values within a known range by assuming that the estimated value follows logically from the known values. |
