Quiz 18Listed below are brain sizes (in ) and Wechsler IQ scores of subjects. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between brain size and IQ Score? Does it appear that people with larger brains are more intelligent?

RegressionGiven a collection of sample data, the regression equation Algebraically describes the relationship between the two variables x and y. The graph of the regression equation is called the regression line (or line of best fit, or least-squares line).x is called the predictor variable, or Independent variable. is called the response variable, or dependent variable

The graph of the regression equation is called the regression line (or line of best fit, or least-squares line).x is called the explanatory variable, or independent variable. is called the response variable, or dependent variableThe regression equation should remind you of

RegressionRequirements1. The sample of paired (x,y) data is a random sample of quantitative data.2. Visual examination of the scatterplot shows that the points approximate a straight line pattern.3. Outliers can have a strong effect on the regression, so remove any outliers that are known to be errors. Consider the effects of any outliers that are not known errors

Use the regression equation only if there is a linear correlation.3. Use the regression equation for predictions that do not go very far past the sample data.4. If the regression equation does not appear to be useful for making predictions the best predicted value of a variable is its point estimate, which is its sample mean.
