Excel Regression Guide for Beginners

The document provides an example of using regression analysis to calculate a regression line from given data points. It shows calculating the regression line equation from glucose levels and ages of 5 patients. It then uses the regression line to calculate the glucose level for a person aged 77. A second example calculates the regression line for heights and weights of 10 students.

Let us take the example of a set of five patients whose glucose levels have been examined and presented
along with their respective ages. Based on the given information, build the regression line equation and
then calculate the glucose level for a person aged 77 by using the regression line equation.

Sr. No. X (Age) Y (Glucose Level) XY X²


1 45 105 4725 2025
2 23 68 1564 529
3 42 79 3318 1764
4 59 95 5605 3481
5 63 89 5607 3969

Sum is Calculated as

X (Age) Y (Glucose Level) XY X²


Sum (∑) 232 436 20819 11768

b is calculated using the formula given below


b = [n * (∑XY) - (∑X) * (∑Y)] / [n * (∑X 2) - (∑X)2]

b 0.59

a is calculated using the formula given below


a = [(∑Y) * (∑X2) - (∑X) * (∑XY)] / [n * (∑X2) - (∑X)2]

a 59.98

Regression Line is calculated using the formula given below


Regression Line Formula = Y = a + b * X

Regression Line (Y) 105.15


Let us take the example of a class with 10 students where their heights and weights
were measured to check if their weight had any liner relationship with their height.
The following information is available.

Sr. No. Y (Weight) XY X2
(Height)
1 157 62 9734 24649
2 172 72 12384 29584

9 161 69 11109 25921
10 155 59 9145 24025

Sum is Calculated as

X Y (Weight) XY X2
(Height)
Sum (∑) 1631 697 114008 266843

b is calculated using the formula given below


b = [n * (∑XY) - (∑X) * (∑Y)] / [n * (∑X 2) - (∑X)2]

b 0.40

a is calculated using the formula given below


a = [(∑Y) * (∑X2) - (∑X) * (∑XY)] / [n * (∑X2) - (∑X)2]
