Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot.
Shanti wrote the predicted values for a data set using the line of best fit y = 2.55x – 3.15. She computed two of the residual values.
Points and their residual values are shown in the table.
Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot.
What does a residual value of –0.8 mean in reference to the line of best fit?
Consider the plot created from the residuals of a line of best fit for a set of data.
Kiley gathered the data in the table. She found the approximate line of best fit to be y = 1.6x – 4.
Consider the table showing the given, predicted, and residual values for a data set.
Use the table to find the residual points. Which residual plot is the correct one for the data?
