To calculate the linear regression and logarithmic regression

correlation coefficients for the following paired-variable data and

determine the regression formula for the strongest correlation: (

x

,

y

)

= (20, 3150), (110, 7310), (200, 8800), (290, 9310). Specify Fix 3

(three decimal places) for results.

Calculating Estimated Values

Based on the regression formula obtained by paired-variable statistical
calculation, the estimated value of

y

can be calculated for a given

x

-value.

The corresponding

x

-value (two values,

x

1

and

x

2

, in the case of quadratic

regression) also can be calculated for a value of

y

in the regression

formula.

To determine the estimate value for

y

when

x

= 160 in the

regression formula produced by logarithmic regression of the data

in

3

. Specify Fix 3 for the result. (Perform the following operation

after completing the operations in

3

.)

Result: 8106.898

Important: Regression coefficient, correlation coefficient, and estimated
value calculations can take considerable time when there are a large number
of data items.

Calculation Ranges, Number of Digits,
and Precision

The calculation range, number of digits used for internal calculation, and
calculation precision depend on the type of calculation you are performing.
