The data below shows the duration of eruption (in seconds) of a geyser in a national park and the height (in feet) of the eruptions for a typical day. Use Excel to find the best fit linear regression equation, where duration of eruption is the explanatory variable. Round the slope and intercept to one decimal place.

ŷ = -0.08522X + 157.7779

The slope = - 0.1

Intercept = 157.8

General regression equation :

y = mx + c

Where

y = predicted variable

x = predictor / explanatory variable

m = slope or gradient

c = Intercept

The regression equation obtained ;

ŷ = -0.08522X + 157.7779

To one decimal place :

ŷ = -0.1X + 157.8

The slope = - 0.1

Intercept = 157.8

they can both be solutions depends on the equation
