Which linear regression equation best fits the given points? (1, 0), (4, 5), (5, 12), (7, 16), (8, 25), (11, 22), (14, 32)

yˆ=25x+1.9

yˆ=−52x−1.9

yˆ=52x−1.5

yˆ=−25x+1.5

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
