Simple Linear Regression

This document provides an overview of regression analysis and simple linear regression. It defines regression analysis as using statistical processes to estimate relationships between variables, with a focus on the relationship between a dependent and one or more independent variables. Simple linear regression specifies a linear relationship between a response/dependent variable Y and input/independent variable X, where the regression line is estimated using coefficients for the intercept and slope. The document provides examples of calculating a simple linear regression equation and estimating values based on the regression line. It concludes by listing references for further information.

Regression Analysis

In statistical modeling, regression analysis is a set of statistical processes for estimating the
relationships among variables. It includes many techniques for modeling and analyzing several
variables, when the focus is on the relationship between a dependent variable and one or
more independent variables . More specifically, regression analysis helps one to understand how
the typical value of the dependent variable changes when any one of the independent variables is
varied, while the other independent variables are held fixed.

Simple Linear Regression

The relationship between the response(Dependent) variable Y and the input(Independent) variable x
specified in the equation is called a simple linear regression.
We have two kinds of regression lines
(i) Line y on x
Suppose that the value of the independent variable is set to equal x. Let Y denote the resulting value of the
dependent variable. The simplest type of relationship between this pair of variables is a straight-line, or
linear, relation of the form
Y = a + bx
Where a(intercept) and b(slope) are regression coefficients or least square estimates.
The formulas :
