    Hello

    I took the last paper in March and there was a topic on linear regression and unplanned variances. These are two things I haven’t come across before. But does anyone know how to attempt these? I have looked through notes and can’t find anything on linear regression.

    TIA

    Linear regression is not mentioned in the APM syllabus, but it is assumed knowledge from MA and PM.

    See p72 of our MA notes.

    I have looked at the page mentioned – however this doesn’t really clear anything for me. i get the formula y = a+bx. But is there an example I can work this against?

    Am I saying if A is 5
    B is 10
    and X is 130

    I do 130 x 10 = 1300
    plus the value of A, this would be 1305?
