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`


Fit a trend line to the following data by the method of least square :

Year 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010
IMR 10 7 5 4 3 1 0
