: Find an Equation for the least square line of the data below. Use the equation to predict the x-value that corresponds to a y -value of 7
X:8 4 1 5 4 4 9 8 5 2 7 1 6 3 2 4
Y:7 6 2 5 6 4 8 8 6 3 8 3 6 4 1 3
I have graphed the line but i dont know how i am supose to get the equation for the line

Using a TI Linear Regression function I find the
Least Squares equation to be y = 0.798x+1.357
-------------------------------
I y = 7 the value of x is 7.07
