Which one is correct about the least squares method? A) The main purpose when applying the least squares method is to find the most suitable equation that minimizes the departure of the actual experimental results from the regression line. B) The curve obtained by the least squares method is called the bell curve. C) The fact that the R value is zero, indicates that the agreement between the obtained curve and the experimental results is very good. D) Instead of using a series of formulas in the least squares method, we can perform regression analysis with Microsoft Word program. E) The fact that the R value is one, indicates that there is no agreement between the curve obtained and the experimental results.
