Variables

Definition

VARS Menu

r

Correlation coefficient

EQ

r

or R

2

Coefficient of determination

EQ

RegEQ

Regression equation

EQ

x1,y1,x2,y2,

x3,y3

Summary points

PTS

a, b, c

Regressionà fit coefficients

EQ

n (number of data points)

n

=number of

x

data points in a

1-Var Stats

analysis or the

number of

x

and

y

data points in a

2-Var Stats

analysis. Since

both variable lists always have the same number of list

elements in

2-Var Stats

,

n

for

x

is always equal to

n

for

y

.

Therefore,

n

applies to both the

x

and

y

analyses.

freq (Frequency Lists)

If freq is specified,

n

is equal to the sum of the elements in that

list. For example, if the freq is {2,2,3,1,2},

n

={2+2+3+1+2}=10.

Q

1

, Q

3

, and Med

Q

1

,

Q

3

, and

Med

are undefined if the freq contains non-integer

values. They also are not calculated if the freq contains a value

larger than 99.

RegEQ

The calculator stores the most recently generated regression

equation (see - v

CALC

menu items 3–7) to the variable,

RegEQ

. If, for example, you execute

5: LinReg(ax+b)

, but you

don’t initially store

RegEQ

to a

Y

n

variable, you can later insert

RegEQ

into the Y= editor. The calculator graphs the regression

equation when it is selected.
If the frequency for an element or data pair is 0, the element or

data pair is ignored in the calculation.
