Simple Linear Regression Tutorial Using LA Neighborhoods Data

Data: We will be using the LA Neighborhoods Data for this tutorial.

Goal: Our goal is to predict the median income using one explanatory variable by using SOCR. In this example, we will use the age variable.

Step 1: First, we will import the data into the SOCR Simple Regression Analysis Activity. Head to http://wiki.stat.ucla.edu/socr/index.php/SOCR_Data_LA_Neighborhoods_Data#Data_Source and find the table with the data. Select all of the data, and press Ctrl+C (Apple+C on Macs) to copy it.

Step 2: Next, head to http://socr.ucla.edu/htmls/SOCR_Analyses.html, and find the Simple Regression Analysis Activity in the drop-down menu.
