Linear Regression
• The regression formula for linear regression is:
y
= A + B
x
.
•
Example:
Atmospheric Pressure vs. Temperature
Perform linear regression to determine the
regression formula terms and correlation
coefficient for the data nearby. Next, use
the regression formula to estimate
atmospheric pressure at 18
°
C and
temperature at 1000 hPa. Finally, calculate
the coefficient of determination (
r
2
) and
sample covariance .
• The following table shows the key operations you should use to recall
results in the case of quadratic regression.
