Linear Regression (and Best Fit)

Learners collect and analyze data. In this statistics activity, pupils create a liner model of their data and analyze it using central tendencies. They find the linear regression using a spreadsheet.

If it's warm, they will come! Learners find a line of best fit to show a relationship between temperature and beach visitors. Previous lessons in the series showed pupils how to create and find associations in scatter plots. Now,...

In this brightness of stars worksheet, high schoolers use a given formula using the temperature in Kelvins of a star to find its brightness. Students solve 4 problems using this equation.

In this radiation and temperature worksheet, students use 2 methods to derive the Wein Displacement law that shows the relationship between the temperature of a body to the frequency where the Planck curve's value is at its maximum....

Students analyze data related to amusement parks and create a spreadsheet to display the data. They read the data and predict which amusement park they think is safer, create a spreadsheet and graph, and write a proposal based on their...

This math packet includes four different activities which puts linear equations and line of best fit in the context of real world applications. Each activity uses a different linear math modeling equation and asks the learners to...

Can your class solve linear equations in two variables? They will be able to after they engage in this lesson. Individuals graph linear equations in two variables using slope and intercept and identifying the relationship between the x...

The more you text, the less you study. Have classes test this hypothesis or another question related to text messages. Using real data, learners use technology to create a scatter plot and calculate a regression line. They create a dot...

Students explore and analyze atmospheric conditions for a high mountain retreat. They examine the relationship between altitude, atmospheric pressure, temperature and humidity at a particular location. In addition, they write reports...

In this activity, students investigate the relationship between temperature and number of cricket chirps. They learn to find the other value of a function when given one value of a function. Students use linear regression and plot a set...
