What's Y = a + Bx?

The Linear Regression Equation
The equation has the form Y= a + bX, where Y is the dependent variable (that's the variable that goes on the Y axis), X is the independent variable (i.e. it is plotted on the X axis), b is the slope of the line and a is the y-intercept.

What does Y a BX stand for?

A linear regression line has an equation of the form Y = a + bX, where X is the explanatory variable and Y is the dependent variable. The slope of the line is b, and a is the intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

What formula is y AXB?

An equation of the form y = ax+b is called a linear equation in slope-intercept form. Claim: The solutions of the equation y = ax + b (where a and b are numbers) form a line of slope a that contains the point (0,b) on the y-axis.
