Study Notes
Linear Regression Terms
- r² (Coefficient of Determination): Ranges between 0 and 1, indicates the proportion of variance in the dependent variable explained by the independent variable.
- a (Slope): Represents the rate of change in the dependent variable for each unit change in the independent variable.
- b (Y-Intercept): The point where the line of best fit intersects the Y-axis, indicating the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.
Correlation Coefficients
- r (Pearson Correlation Coefficient): Ranges from -1 to 1, measuring the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables.
- r = 1: Indicates the strongest possible positive correlation between variables.
- r = -1: Represents the strongest possible negative correlation.
- r = 0: Indicates no correlation at all between the variables.
- r < -0.8: Suggests a strong negative correlation.
- r > 0.8: Indicates a strong positive correlation.
- r = -0.5: Suggests a weak negative correlation.
Determination Coefficient Insights
- Determination Coefficient (r²) Explanation: Quantifies the percentage of variation in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variable.
- r² = 1: Represents a perfect fit, where all data points lie exactly on the line of best fit.
- r² = 0: Indicates the worst possible fit, with no explanatory power for the model.
Finding Linear Regression Models
- Determining the Linear Regression Model: Involves entering data into statistical software, running diagnostic tests, and comparing r² values for different regression types (linear, quadratic, exponential). The best model is selected based on r² values, and the equation is recorded for predictions.
Transformations of Functions
- Types of Transformations: Include absolute value transformations which alter the position or shape of the graph of a function.
- Translation Up k Units: Represented by the equation ( y = |x| + k ), shifts the graph up by k units.
- Translation Down k Units: Represented by the equation ( y = |x| - k ), shifts the graph down by k units.
- Translation Right h Units: Represented by the equation ( y = |x - h| ), shifts the graph right by h units.
- Translation Left h Units: Represented by the equation ( y = |x + h| ), shifts the graph left by h units.
- Vertical Stretch: Represented when ( a > 1 ) in ( y = a|x| ), stretches the graph vertically.
- Vertical Compression: Occurs when ( 0 < a < 1 ), compressing the graph vertically.
