1.
Least squares regression line(LSRL):
Excel Procedure:
Enter t and h in Excel>Data>Data Analysis> ‘Regression’>Select h under ‘Input Y Range’>Select t under ‘Input X Range’>Click on ‘OK’.
Output:
From the given information output,
h=15.6277-2.4850t.
Interpretation:
- Intercept: The constant increase of 15.6277 hours in sleeping hours.
- Slope: There is decrease in sleeping hours by 2.4850 hours as age increases by one year.
