Pick 2 quantitative variables from the dataset you choose y will be the variable you are trying to predict as a linear function of x - What two variables did you pick? Which one was x and which one was y? - What type of linear relationship do you believe exists between x and y? Positive: As x gets larger, y tends to get larger Negative: As x gets larger, y tends to get smaller sodium fiber 130 10 15 2 260 9 140 14 200 1 180 1.5 125 1 210 2 200 4 210 5 220 0 290 2 210 0 140 2 180 0 280 0 290 1 90 1 180 0 140 4 80 1 220 1 140 2 190 1 125 1 200 1 0 3 160 5 240 5 135 0 45 0 280 0 140 3 170 3 75 3 220 1 250 1.5 180 0 170 1 170 2 260 0 150 2 180 0 0 0 95 3 150 3 150 3 220 2 190 0 220 3 170 3 170 1.5 200 6 320 1 0 0 0 1 135 2 0 2.7 210 5 140 2.5 0 2 240 0 290 0 0 3 0 4 0 3 70 1 230 1 15 3 200 0 190 4 200 3 250 0 140 0 230 3 200 3 200 1
