  2. I NTRODUCTION In this presentation, we are interested representing data for two variables (called binomial variables) whose relation may appear to be linear. Since our interest in a linear relation, we seek to find the algebraic representation (an equation) for the data plotted.

  3. V OCABULARY : Scatter plot It is a graph composed of points representing the relationship between data of two related variables Line of the best fit It is the line in a scatter plot that best represents the points plotted
