The correlation coefficient is close
to 1, so the sales calculated in the
preceding example is a good
estimate.
To graph the regression line, calculate the coefficients of the linear equation
y = A + Bx.
1. Press 0gR to compute the y-intercept (A).
2. To compute the slope of the line (B) in RPN mode, press
1gR~d~-. To compute the slope of the line (B) in ALG mode,
press these keys: 1gR~d-~}.
Example:
Compute the slope and intercept of the regression line in the preceding
example.

The equation that describes the regression line is:
y = 15.55 + 0.001x
