Question 1

Find an equation of the line of best fit given the following points:  (1, -1), (2, 1), (3, 2), (4, 1), and (5, 0).
◦ y = + 1
◦ y = 5x
◦ y = - 1
◦ y =
◦ y = 2x -1

Question 2

Find the value of the constant  m  so that the  line  y = mx  best fits the experimental data  (1, 2.3),  (2, 4.2),  (3, 7.1),  (4, 8.8)  in the sense of minimizing the sum of the squares of the vertical distances of the data points from the line.
◦ m = 2.24
◦ m = 2.18
◦ m = 2.36
◦ m = 2.34
◦ m = 2.11
