5.3  Modeling Linear Functions

Before you work through the problem, read pages 161 - 163 -

         Association, Correlation, and Linear Modeling

Important:  To learn how to use the DESMOS regression program, you must click on the link below. It has all of the steps for DESMOS and regression graphs.

Problem

  The data below lists the ages and the maximum number of heartbeats at that age. 

         { (20, 50), (30, 47.5) (40, 45), (50, 42.5), (60, 40), (70, 37.5), (80, 34.5)}

We will work through this problem using Desmos. 

        The presentation  below will guide you through the setup process

         and instructions for solving Linear Modeling
