    Learn how to find the equation of the least squares line, also known as the line of least square, the regression line, or the line of regression. Given several coordinate points, use formulas for m, the slope, and b, the y-intercept, to calculate the equation of the line that is the average of all the points.

    Hi, I’m Krista! I make math courses to keep you from banging your head against the wall. ;)
    Math class was always so frustrating for me. I’d go to a class, spend hours on homework, and three days later have an “Ah-ha!” moment about how the problems worked that could have slashed my homework time in half. I’d think, “WHY didn’t my teacher just tell me this in the first place?!”
    So I started tutoring to keep other people out of the same aggravating, time-sucking cycle. Since then, I’ve recorded tons of videos and written out cheat-sheet style notes and formula sheets to help every math student-from basic middle school classes to advanced college calculus-figure out what’s going on, understand the important concepts, and pass their classes, once and for all.

    I don't understand why they teach this so darn difficult when she's literally made it so damn easy to understand.

    I tried Khan Academy and I even tried going to my professor to learn about the linear regression line and you have taught me more than the both of them combined. Thank you so much! You're amazing

    I see what you're saying, but yes, the x-value would be the year and y-value would be the time. If you were going to write a function that modeled the data, it would be a function that models how the winning times change over the years, and you could look at a particular year to see how fast people were completing the race during that year. So it would still be a helpful function. :)

    YOU.ARE.A.GODDESS. I have my third exam tonight and my professor taught us the most complicated and long-winded process for this. This literally takes less than 3 minuets and less space on paper.
