In a data plot most of the data points will lie below the line of best fit?

If most of them lie below the line, then that line isn't the best fit. The exact layout depends on what definition you use for "best fit", but any definition will produce a line that has roughly the same number of data points on each side of it.


How can you use a scatter plot to find an equation of a trend line?

By finding the line of best fit and using the straight line equation formula.


Is the line of best fit the same as linear regression?

Linear Regression is a method to generate a "Line of Best fit" yes you can use it, but it depends on the data as to accuracy, standard deviation, etc. there are other types of regression like polynomial regression.

When should I draw a smooth curve a best fit line or only join the plots (I am especially thinking about Biology for that last one)?

You should use a curve if the scatter plot shows a clear curving shape. Otherwise draw a straight line. But a line of best fit should never zigzag from point to point.

What is the equation of the line of best fit for the following data . x y 2 2 5 8 7 10 9 11 11 13?

To find the equation of the line of best fit for the given data points (2, 2), (5, 8), (7, 10), (9, 11), and (11, 13), we can use the least squares method. The calculated slope (m) is approximately 0.85 and the y-intercept (b) is around 0.79. Thus, the equation of the line of best fit is approximately ( y = 0.85x + 0.79 ).

How do you compound error for physics A2 coursework?

If plotting a graph and are producing a straight line to find a gradient: You plot a line of best fit, then you plot two other lines starting from the same point which show the extreme lines of best fit (do this in fainter lines so that the best one stands out). Find the gradients for all three lines, use the first line that you drew as the main value. Then find the largest difference between the middle line and the extreme lines E.g. if the gradient of the lines were: First line gradient = 1.2 Second (Top extreme line of best fit) gradient =1.5 Third (Minimum extreme line of best fit) gradient = 1.0 Find the larget difference: 1.5-1.2=0.3 1.0-1.2=-0.2 Therefore the largest difference is 0.3 (not 0.2) Therefore your final result would be: 1.2 (+-) 0.3 I hope this helps :D
