Linear Regression And Correlation Coefficient
Linear regression is a way of predicting an unknown variable using results that you do know. If you have a set of x and y values, you can use a regression equation to make a straight line relating the x and y. The reason you might want to do this is if you know some information, and want to estimate other information. For instance, you might have measured the fuel economy in your car when you were driving 30 miles per hour, when you were driving 40 miles per hour, and when you were driving 75 miles per hour.
