2014/9/16 Linear Equations Ad Options Ads by Vidx Linear Equations A linear equation is an equation for a straight line These are all linear equations: y = 2x+1 5x = 6+3y y/2 = 3 x Let us look more closely at one example: Example: y = 2x+1 is a linear equation: The graph of y = 2x+1 is a straight line When x increases‚ y increases twice as fast‚ hence 2x When x is 0‚ y is already 1. Hence +1 is also needed So: y = 2x + 1 Here are some example values: http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/linear-equations

Linear ------------------------------------------------- Important EXERCISE 27 SIMPLE LINEAR REGRESSION STATISTICAL TECHNIQUE IN REVIEW Linear regression provides a means to estimate or predict the value of a dependent variable based on the value of one or more independent variables. The regression equation is a mathematical expression of a causal proposition emerging from a theoretical framework. The linkage between the theoretical statement and the equation is made prior to data collection

Plots Linear regression is a crucial tool in identifying and defining key elements influencing data. Essentially‚ the researcher is using past data to predict future direction. Regression allows you to dissect and further investigate how certain variables affect your potential output. Once data has been received this information can be used to help predict future results. Regression is a form of forecasting that determines the value of an element on a particular situation. Linear regression

Linear Functions There are three different ways to write linear functions. They are slope-intercept‚ point-slope‚ and standard form. There are certain situations where it is better to use one way than another to solve a problem. It is important to understand and comprehend the mechanics of these three forms so that you know what form to use when solving a problem. The first form‚ point-slope‚ is written as y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope and x1 and y1 correspond to a point on the line. It’s good to

Procedure Programming and Object Oriented Programming both uses linear sequence of commands‚ yet Object Oriented Programming have developed a more complex and abstract approach (Stetson‚ 2004). Object Oriented Program is an extension to Procedure Program. Procedure Programming and
