1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 Welcome back to statistics. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,000 Today we do a case study in regression. 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,000 In this case study, I will use again the data that you all submitted 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000 about my current weight called L and my previous weight from last year 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000 as you guessed it all in kilograms called P. 6 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000 Here is my question for you as a well-trained statistician. 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000 What is the very first thing I'll do? 8 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Compute the mean, the variance, and similar simple statistics? 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000 Run a scatterplot? 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,000 Or go straight to the end and run my regression methods 11 00:00:35,000 --> 99:59:59,999 to see what's the best line that fits the data? Pick one.
