The ___________________ travels through the middle of the points the closest.

Two pieces of data variables being compared at the same time are called ___________________.

A relationship between two numerical variables is a ___________________ if the data is loosely spread around the best fit line.

Two variables have a ___________________ when a line can be reasonably drawn through the points of the graph and the majority of the points follow the line closely.

A scatter plot has ___________________ when data points form distinct groups.

The ___________________ is the steepness of a line; the rate of change.

A ___________________ is a way of organizing data from two categorical variables in order to investigate the association between them.

In statistics we say that there is an ___________________ between two variables if the two variables are statistically related to each other; if the value of one of the variables can be used to estimate the value of the other.

A relationship between two numerical variables is a ___________________ if an increase in the data for one variable tends to be paired with an increase in the data for the other variable.

A relationship between two numerical variables is a ___________________ if the data is tightly clustered around the best fit line.

Two variables have a ___________________ when a line cannot be reasonably drawn through data points because the points would not all stay close to the line.

A ___________________ is a version of a two-way table in which the value in each cell is divided by the total number of responses in the entire table or by the total number of responses in a row or a column.

The _________ is the difference between the y-value for a point in a scatter plot and the value predicted by a linear model.
