Aset of bivariate data was used to create a least-squares regression line. which of the following is minimized by the line? the sum of the residuals a the sum of the squared residuals b the sum of the absolute values of the residuals c the influence of outliers d the slope

The sum of the squared residuals

Step-by-step explanation:

If you sum the residuals, you would get 0

if you sum of the absolute values of the residuals you wouldn't be doing "least-squares regression"

The influence of outliers D The slope is another metric that has nothing to do in creating the regression line

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

hi! i think the answer is 1/2 : )
