What else can I help you with?
In a data plot most of the data points will lie below the line of best fit?
If most of them lie below the line, then that line isn't the best fit. The exact layout depends on what definition you use for "best fit", but any definition will produce a line that has roughly the same number of data points on each side of it.
In a data plot about half the data points will lie below the line that best fits?
Yes. The exception arises when you have outliers.
What is a straight line that best fits the data on the coordinate plane?
The straight line that best fits the data on a coordinate plane is the Line Of Best Fit.
How can you select data in same line?
Find (or calculate) the equation of the line. Select any value of x. Calculate the corresponding value for y using the equation. Then (x, y) is a point on the same line.
What characteristic makes regression line of best fit?
The equation of the regression line is calculated so as to minimise the sum of the squares of the vertical distances between the observations and the line. The regression line represents the relationship between the variables if (and only if) that relationship is linear. The equation of this line ensures that the overall discrepancy between the actual observations and the predictions from the regression are minimised and, in that respect, the line is the best that can be fitted to the data set. Other criteria for measuring the overall discrepancy will result in different lines of best fit.
In data plot most of the data points will lie below the line of best fit?
False
In a data plot most of the data points will lie below the line of best fit?
If most of them lie below the line, then that line isn't the best fit. The exact layout depends on what definition you use for "best fit", but any definition will produce a line that has roughly the same number of data points on each side of it.
True or false in a data plot about half the data points will lie below the line of best fit?
True. In a data plot, the line of best fit represents the average trend of the data. Therefore, approximately half of the data points should lie below the line of best fit and half should lie above it if the data is evenly distributed.
In a data plot about half the data points will lie below the line that best fits?
Yes. The exception arises when you have outliers.
Which is the best equationof a line of best fit this scatterplot?
A straight line equation
What is the difference between a trend line and a line of best fit?
Oh, honey, let me break it down for you. A trend line is a general direction showing the overall trend of data points, while a line of best fit is a specific line that minimizes the distance between the line and the data points. So basically, a trend line is like a rough sketch, and a line of best fit is like the tailor-made suit that hugs those data points just right.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation below?
There is no equation there but the slope of the line is the number that multiplies x in the straight line equation y = mx + b whereas m is the slope and b is the y intercept
What is a straight line that best fits the data on the coordinate plane?
The straight line that best fits the data on a coordinate plane is the Line Of Best Fit.
A trend equation is a regression equation in which?
A trend equation is a regression equation that models the relationship between a variable and time. It is used to identify and forecast trends in data over time, helping to predict future values based on historical patterns. Trend equations can be linear or nonlinear, depending on the nature of the data being analyzed.
What is the slope of the line described by the equation below?
Equation of a straight line is: y = mx+c whereas m is the slope and c is the y intercept
Which point lies on the line described by the equation below?
That of course would depend on the straight line equation that has not been given and so therefore an answer is not possible.
How can you use a scatter plot to find an equation of a trend line?
By finding the line of best fit and using the straight line equation formula.
