Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation: Fixed Figure 2 and the residuals.

math fix

Module: Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation: Very minor edit. Replaced "a" with "the."

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation: Minor edits.

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation: Moved a paragraph.

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation: Updated summary.

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation; updated module.  Includes information about using the function LinRegTTest to show through a hypothesis test that r is or is not significant and finding outliers graphically.

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation:  In the first sentence, changed "fits" to "fit."

Linear Regression and Correlation: The Regression Equation; 
Precede the sentence that begins with, "Each point of data is of the form 
(x, y)," with the sentence "Consider the following diagram" instead of the sentence "Consider the diagram shown"; In the sentence that begins with "Using calculus," change the sentence to read, 
"Using calculus, you can determine the values of a and b that make the SSE a minimum.
