Pg 337345 3b 6b form and strength Page 350359 10b 12a 16c 16e Homework Turn In A straight line that describes how a response variable y changes as an explanatory variable x changes . Assumptions on noise in linear regression allow us to estimate the prediction variance due to the noise at any point.. Prediction variance is usually large when you are far from a data point.. We distinguish between interpolation, when we are in the convex hull of the data points, and extrapolation where we are outside.. Alexander Swan & Rafey Alvi. Residuals Grouping. No regression analysis is complete without a display of the residuals to check that the linear model is reasonable.. Residuals often reveal subtleties that were not clear from a plot of the original data.. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. RULES. Answer A, B, C or D.

Based on the correlation, you can predict the value of one variable from the value of another.. Correlation and regression are powerful tools, but have limitations..
