Assignment:
Bivariate data obtained for the paired variables x and y are shown below, in the table labelled "Sample data." These data are plotted in the scatter plot in Figure 1, which also displays the least-squares regression line for the data. The equation for this line is y^ = 4.85+1.01x .
In the "Calculations" table are calculations involving the observed y values, the mean of these values, and the values predicted from the regression equation.

1) For the data point (255.8, 279.7), the value of the residual is: (Round you answer to at least 2 decimal places.)
2) The least-squares regression line given above is said to be a line which "best fits" the sample data. The term "best fits" is used because the line has an equation that minimizes the _total sum of squares or regression sum of squares or error sum of squares (choose one), which for these data is __3151.7005, 924.827, 4069.4320. (choose one)
3) The value r2 is the proportion of the total variation is the sample y values that is explained by the estimated linear relationship between x and y. For these data, the value of r2 is:
4) The total variation is the sample y values is given by the _total sum of squares or regression sum of squares or error sum of squares, (choose one) which for these data is __3151.7005, 924.827, 4069.4320 (choose one).
