📐 Linear Regression Calculator

Fit a linear regression line to (x, y) data, and see the slope, intercept, correlation coefficient, R², and predicted values from the best-fit line.

Linear Regression Calculator

Paste paired (x, y) data and fit a least‑squares regression line. See the slope, intercept, correlation, R², and predicted values from the best‑fit line.

Data

The calculator will ignore lines that do not contain two numeric values.

Regression summary

Regression equation
ŷ = 1.45 + 0.75x
Slope (b₁)

Prediction

x value to predict for

The prediction uses the best‑fit line and assumes a linear relationship continues at this x value.

Predicted value

ŷ at x
5.95

How to use this tool

  1. Paste your (x, y) pairs, one per line.
  2. Review the regression equation, slope, intercept, correlation, and R².
  3. Enter an x value to see the predicted y from the best‑fit line.

Best fit line calculator for quick analysis

  • Turn a small data set into a linear trend line in seconds.
  • Use the slope and intercept in spreadsheets, reports, or exam questions.
  • Check how strong the linear relationship is using r and R².

What this linear regression calculator assumes

  • The relationship between x and y is approximately linear.
  • The calculation uses ordinary least squares with no extra weighting.
  • The tool does not check residuals or outliers, so always interpret results in context.

FAQ

Can I swap x and y?
Yes, but remember that regressing y on x is not the same as regressing x on y. Decide which variable should be treated as the predictor and which as the response.
What does R² tell me?
R² (the coefficient of determination) tells you what proportion of the variation in y is explained by the linear relationship with x.
Is this suitable for large data sets?
It works best for small to moderate data sets you might see in homework, projects, or quick analyses. For very large data, a dedicated stats package or spreadsheet may be better.
