The document summarizes fitting a straight line to data using the method of least squares. It provides data points for variables x and y. It then calculates the estimated y-values (est y) using the formula est y=1+2.357*x. The calculation of the slope (b) and intercept (a) is shown. A chart is included to represent the original data points and estimated line.
