Fitting Lines to Data | Against All Odds: Unit 11

See how plotting measurements in a scatterplot lets Colorado scientists draw a regression line to forecast water supply in this video from Against All Odds. U.S. Geological Survey scientists utilize regression lines to predict annual water runoff in this real-world example of statistics at work. Hosted by Pardis Sabeti, this video incorporates graphics to show how to use the explanatory variables and the response variables to form a regression line.
