Introduction to Prediction

What you’ll learn to do: Use a regression equation to predict the given value of the independent value

A large swimming pool with a slide in it.Can we predict attendance at a waterpark based on the probability of precipitation for that day? Knowing how many people might be in attendance could help the waterpark management determine how many employees need to be on the schedule for a given day. In this section, you will learn how to make predictions using the least-squares regression equation.
