In this article, we would see how to add linear regression equation and r-squared to a graph in R. It is very useful when we need to document or present our statistical results. Many people are familiar with R-square as a performance metrics for linear regression. If you are novice in linear regression technique, you can read this article - Linear Regression with R
Create Sample Data
The following program prepares data that is used to demonstrate the method of adding regression equation and rsquare to graph.
