In this lesson, you will assess the fit of a function by plotting and analyzing residuals.
When you finish this lesson, you will be able to:
- Plot and calculate residuals for a data set and use the information to judge whether a linear model is a good fit.
Here are the activities that will help you reach those goals:
- 3.3.1: Subtracting an Estimated Value from an Actual Value
- 3.3.2: Plotting and Analyzing Residuals
- 3.3.2: Self Check
- 3.3.2: Additional Resources
- 3.3.3: Matching Residuals Graphs to Scatter Plots
- 3.3.3: Self Check
- 3.3.3: Additional Resources
- 3.3.4: Identifying Best Fit Line for Residuals on a Graph
After that, you’ll practice and review.
- 3.3.5: Practice
- 3.3.6: Lesson Summary
