the interesting features
of the regression
models and briefly
mentioning the rest.

Each person needs to cover some of the mathematical content of the presentation. Talking
only non-mathematical content will get you (individually) a zero. If each person equally
shares in the mathematical presentation, you will each (individually) get a 3
.

CHECKLIST
The following items should be included in your presentation. Minimal detail is required,
but they should all be stated. In the analysis, you will go back and address some of these
points in detail.
For each function you discuss, for each of the 2 (or more) regression functions, you
should include each of the following.
For each regression function:
Zeros (1 point if you talk about the zeros for
both functions)
Maxima/minima (1 point for both functions)
Formulas of regression functions (1 point)
Correlation coefficient ( R 2 ) (1 points)
DOMAIN AND RANGE:
Formulas (1 point for both functions)
 Physical Problems, if any (1 point)
