G. Analysis of B vs A.5
Shape of line is
We can now….
a straight line.
Find the equation of the straight line.

H. Finding the Equation
1. “Stat”, “Calc” “4:LinReg(ax+b)
2. “2nd”, “list”, ‘AHALF’, ‘,’
3. “2nd”, “list”, ‘B’, “Enter”
4. On screen we see:
a. LinReg
y = ax+b a = .20 b = .01
[a = slope, b = y-intercept]
![Page 14: Analyzing Experimental Data Lazy Parabola B as a function of A](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032415/56813463550346895d9b4952/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
H. The Equation is:Using y = mx+b concept where the
calculator uses y = ax+b, substitute in the value for ‘a’ and ‘b’ and one gets:
0.01 x 20.0 0.5 y
Since b is very close to 0, we can ignore it.
A20.0 B 0.5
Replace ‘y’ with ‘B’ and ‘x’ with ‘A’

I. Thought
What do we say is the relationship between ‘B’ and ‘A’ ?
We say the relationship is:
‘B’ is directly proportional to the square root of ‘A’.
A20.0 B 0.5

J. Plotting Line of Best Fit
1. “y=”, “VARS”, “5:Statistics...”, “EQ”, “1:RegEq”, “Graph”
2. And there you have it, the line of the best fit line for the data points plotted.
3. In real life data gathering, all the points will not fall on the line due to normal measurement error.

K. Summary
That’s all there is to it. If the data yields a straight line, find the equation of the straight line.
If it is a hyperbola or a parabola, then you must make additional
plots until you get a straight line.

K. A Final, Final Thought
At this time, write out a brief summary using bullet points for
what you did.
Do not go on unless you have completed the above.

L. A Shortcut
1. Using original data plot ‘B’ as a function of ‘A’.
2. “Stat”, “Calc”, “A:PwrReg”, 3. “2nd”, “List”, ‘A, ‘,’4. “2nd”, “List”, ‘B’5. “Enter”

6. On the screen we see:
a. PwrReg
y = a*x^b
a = .20
b = .50

7. Substituting:
0.20 for ‘a’ and 0.50 for ‘b’
50.0x20.0y
8. Substituting: ‘B’ for ‘y’ and ‘A’ for ‘x’
50.0A20.0B
y = a*x^b

M. A Summary
9. How does this equation compare to that found earlier?
They should be the same.
