What is regression line?
Regression techniques are used to find the best relationship between two or more variables. Here, best is defined according to some statistical criteria. The regression line is the straight line or curve based on this relationship. The relationship need not be a straight line - it could be a curve. For example, the regression between many common variables in physics will follow the "inverse square law".
If your science project is Could the laces on a baseball affect the distance of travel when thrown what would be your independent and dependent variables and your levels of the independent variables?
Independent variable could be the number (or spacing or size) of the laces and the dependant variable is distance. Possibly levels of the independent variable could be ranges of number of laces.
What is another name for the x term of a linear equation?
The domain. It need not be the "independent variable" since the variables could be interdependent.
What are the three types of variables?
The three types of variables are: Independent: it is the one that you manipulate Dependent: the one that reacts to the changes in the independent variable and is measured in a experiment Control: all the other factors that could affect the dependent variable but are kept constant through out an experiment
Do you put independent variable on the x-axis?
Usually, yes. Obviously, only if you have one: the two variables could be inter-dependent.
