During March, the average temperature was
Calculation:
Consider the case how much gas; in this case “Temperature (X)” will help explain “Gas consumed (Y)”. So “Temperature (X)” is the explanatory variable and “Gas consumed (Y)” is the response variable. Regression line is given as:
Predicted gas consumed to maintain the temperature
Predicted gas consumed to maintain the temperature
