I need to find the slope and line of best fit
x
2,3,3,4,5,5,6
y
6,5,7,7,7,9,8,
line of best y=a+bx
b : slope
a: intercept
n: Number pairs of observations = 7
x | y | xy | x2 |
2 | 6 | 12 | 4 |
3 | 5 | 15 | 9 |
3 | 7 | 21 | 9 |
4 | 7 | 28 | 16 |
5 | 7 | 35 | 25 |
5 | 9 | 45 | 25 |
6 | 8 | 48 | 36 |
b: slope = 0.6667
a: intercept = 4.3333
Line of best fit :
y=4.3333 + 0.6667y
