a. What is a residual?
b. In what sense is the regression line the straight line that "best" fits the points in a scatterplot?
a. What is a residual?
A.
A residual is a value of
y−y,
which is the difference between an observed value of y and a predicted value of y.
B.
A residual is a value that is determined exactly, without any error.
C.
A residual is the amount that one variable changes when the other variable changes by exactly one unit.
D.
A residual is a point that has a strong effect on the regression equation.
b. In what sense is the regression line the straight line that "best" fits the points in a scatterplot?
The regression line has the property that the

- Olympic Pole Vault The graph in Figure 7 indicates that in recent years the winning Olympic men’s pole vault height has fallen below the value predicted by the regression line in Example 2. This might have occurred because when the pole vault was a new event there was much room for improvement in vaulters’ performances, whereas now even the best training can produce only incremental advances. Let’s see whether concentrating on more recent results gives a better predictor of future records. (a) Use the data in Table 2 (page 176) to complete the table of winning pole vault heights shown in the margin. (Note that we are using x=0 to correspond to the year 1972, where this restricted data set begins.) (b) Find the regression line for the data in part ‚(a). (c) Plot the data and the regression line on the same axes. Does the regression line seem to provide a good model for the data? (d) What does the regression line predict as the winning pole vault height for the 2012 Olympics? Compare this predicted value to the actual 2012 winning height of 5.97 m, as described on page 177.
