Regression lines calculator

Find both regression lines and the correlation coefficient the way ISC Mathematics asks: from the pairs of data (with the deviation table), from summary numbers like Σx and Σxy, or from the two regression lines (which is which, the means and r). Add a value to estimate the other.

Start from

Try: x: 1-5, y: 2, 4, 5, 4, 5n = 10, Σx = 50 ...3x + 2y = 26 and 6x + y = 31

Answer

Regression line of y on x
y = (-3/2)x + 13
Regression line of x on y
x = (-1/6)y + 31/6

Values

x̄ (mean of x)
4
ȳ (mean of y)
7
b_yx
-3/2
b_xy
-1/6
r (correlation)
-0.5

The lines

  1. Regression line of y on x: y - 7 = (-3/2)(x - 4), so y = (-3/2)x + 13
  2. Regression line of x on y: x - 4 = (-1/6)(y - 7), so x = (-1/6)y + 31/6
