Fit a trend line by the method of least squares
Solution: Let us fit equation of trend line for above data.
Let the equation of trend line be y = a + bx .....(i)
Here n = 7(odd), middle year is `square` and h = 5
| Year | IMR (y) | x | x2 | x.y |
| 1980 | 10 | – 3 | 9 | – 30 |
| 1985 | 7 | – 2 | 4 | – 14 |
| 1990 | 5 | – 1 | 1 | – 5 |
| 1995 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 2000 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 3 |
| 2005 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 2 |
| 2010 | 0 | 3 | 9 | 0 |
| Total | 30 | 0 | 28 | – 44 |
The normal equations are
Σy = na + bΣx
As, Σx = 0, a = `square`
Also, Σxy = aΣx + bΣx2
As, Σx = 0, b =`square`
∴ The equation of trend line is y = `square`
