Find the equation of the least squares regression line considering Marijuana Use as the Explanatory variable and Other Drug Use as the Response variable.
Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as predictors. Regression analysis is one of the methods to find the trends in data. The independent variable used in Regression analysis is named Predictor variable. It offers data of an associated dependent variable regarding a particular outcome.
![v Question Completion Status:
Data from 10 Western European countries: summary statistics show that the mean
percent of teens that use marijuana is 23.9 with a standard deviation of 15.6. The mean
percent of teens that use other drugs is 11.6 with a standard deviation of 10.2. The
correlation coefficient is r =0.93
Find the equation of the least squares regression line considering Marijuana Use as the
Explanatory variable and Other Drug Use as the Response variable.
