Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 5 Regression lines After verifying that the linear correlation between two variables is significant, next we determine the equation of the line that best models the data (regression line). Can be used to predict the value of y for a given value of x. x y.

The equation of a regression line for an independent variable x and a dependent variable y is ŷ = mx + b Regression Line Predicted y-value for a given x- value Slope y-intercept.

15. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 15 Example: Predicting y-Values Using Regression Equations The regression equation for the gross domestic products (in trillions of dollars) and carbon dioxide emissions (in millions of metric tons) data is ŷ = 196.152x + 102.289. Use this equation to predict the expected carbon dioxide emissions for the following gross domestic products. (Recall from section 9.1 that x and y have a significant linear correlation.) 1. 1.2 trillion dollars 2. 2.0 trillion dollars 3. 2.5 trillion dollars.

16. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 16 Solution: Predicting y-Values Using Regression Equations ŷ = 196.152x + 102.289 1.1.2 trillion dollars When the gross domestic product is $1.2 trillion, the CO 2 emissions are about 337.671 million metric tons. ŷ =196.152(1.2) + 102.289 ≈ 337.671 2.2.0 trillion dollars When the gross domestic product is $2.0 trillion, the CO 2 emissions are 494.595 million metric tons. ŷ =196.152(2.0) + 102.289 ≈ 494.593.

17. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 17 Solution: Predicting y-Values Using Regression Equations 3.2.5 trillion dollars When the gross domestic product is $2.5 trillion, the CO 2 emissions are 592.669 million metric tons. ŷ =196.152(2.5) + 102.289 ≈ 592.669 Prediction values are meaningful only for x-values in (or close to) the range of the data. The x-values in the original data set range from 0.9 to 4.9. So, it would not be appropriate to use the regression line to predict carbon dioxide emissions for gross domestic products such as $0.2 or $14.5 trillion dollars..
