Important Points to Remember in Chapter -1 - Regression Analysis from Tamil Nadu Board Statistics Standard 12 Solutions

1. Regression analysis :

Regression analysis is a statistical method of determining relationship between independent variable and a dependent variable.

2. Types of Regression

(i) Simple linear regression :

If the relationship is linear and there is only one independent variable, then the regression is called as simple linear regression.

(ii) Multiple linear regression :

If the relationship is linear and the number of independent variables is two or more, then the regression is called as multiple linear regression.

(iii) Non-linear regression :

If the relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variable(s) is not linear.

3. General form of simple linear regression:

(i) In simple linear regression there are two linear regression lines.

(ii) In the linear regression line Y=a+bX+e.

4. Relation between correlation coeficcient and regression coefficient :

rXY=bXYbYX

5. General form of multiple linear regression:

Y=a+b1X1+b2X2+b3X3++btXt+e.

6. Method of least squares:

(i) Sum of the residuals zero is i=1nyi-y^l=0.

(ii) Sum of the squares of the residuals is Ea,b=i=1nyi-y^22.

7. Pearson’s coefficient and correlation coefficient:

bXY=rXYSD(X)SD(Y)

8. Angle between the two regression lines:

θ=tan-1m1-m21+m1m2
